Seventeen, we owned those streets
Parking lot, that was our spot
Thats where wed always meet
And wed roll on out in a pickup truck parade
Stake our claim with a fire in a field in the middle of Nowhere, USA
Wed light the midnight up[Chorus]
We'd drive too fast
We'd get too loud
We thought we made the world go round
Nothin but a bunch of time to kill
Set up on the big hill
Make a toast, drink it down
Say, yeah man, we run this townAll the girls next door
Theyd meet us out there
They couldnt wait to get away
And come and let down their hair
We were rough around the edges
They were sweet as they could be
They were way too good
But they still let us steal a little kiss before theyd leave
Guess they thought we were cool becauseWe'd drive too fast
We'd get too loud
Yeah, we thought we made the world go round
Drop it down in four-wheel
Set up on a big hill
And make a toast, drink it down
Say, yeah man, we run this townFrom crazy kids to dirt road kings
Oh, we didnt know nothin'
But we knew everything[Chorus]
We'd drive too fast
We'd get too loud
We thought we made the world go round
Nothin but a bunch of time to kill
Set up on the big hill
Make a toast, drink it down
Say, yeah man, we run this townHigh five and look around
Damn right, we run this town
Man, I love this town
Come on
