Lyrics
[verse]
Tommy's got a truck with a busted radio
Sadie's on the porch swing, watching the road
They met behind the bleachers back in sophomore year
Been stealing summer nights down at the county fair
[verse]
Tommy works the counter down at the feed store
Sadie's saving tips to get out the door
But every Friday night they're back where they started
Two small-town hearts that never quite parted
[chorus]
Oh yeah, the years keep rolling
Long after that first summer spark is gone
They hold on
Chasing down seventeen as long as they can
[verse]
Years go by and the porch light still burning
Sadie's got a kid now, Tommy's truck keeps turning
Nothing's like it used to be, but something still remains
A little bit of that summer running through their veins
[chorus]
Oh yeah, the years keep rolling
Long after that first summer spark is gone
They hold on
Chasing down seventeen as long as they can
[bridge]
Small towns keep their secrets
Small towns keep their names
Tommy and Sadie in the memory
Still playing the same old game
[chorus]
Oh yeah, the years keep rolling
Long after that first summer spark is gone
They hold on
Chasing down seventeen as long as they can
