Lyrics

Written by ervin drake

When I was seventeen, it was a very good year
It was a very good year for small town girls
And soft summer nights
We'd hide from the light on the village green
When I was seventeen

When I was twenty-one, it was a very good year
It was a very good year for city girls
Who lived up the stairs
With all that perfume hair and it came undone
When I was twenty-one

When I was thirty-five, it was a very good year
It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls
Of independent means
We'd ride in limousines. their chauffeurs
Would drive when I was thirty-five

But now the days are short, I'm in the
Autumn of the year
And now I think of my life as vintage
Wine from fine old kegs
From the brim to the dregs. it poured
Sweet and clear. it was a very good year
