Sam Hunt - 23 lyrics

You can marry an architect Build you a house out on the water If he impresses your father You can find some grown up friends Drink some wine in California And even if you cut it shorter You’ll always have long blonde hair You’ll always be Memphis queen You’ll always be my first time, in New Orleans No matter where I go, no matter what I do I’ll never be 23, with anyone but you You can marry who you want Go back to Tennessee But you’ll never be 23 with anyone but me We’ll always have Folly beach We’ll always have delta nights We’ll always be in between real love and real life You can ride the train to work Straighten out your accent in the city Like your folks ain’t from Mississippi Probably got an office view Wearing those skirts you always hated Yeah you’re so sophisticated But I bet that when you drink too much I bet you think about back then I hope you’re happy now I’m really glad I knew you then No matter where I go, no matter what I do I’ll never be 23, with anyone but you You can marry who you want Go back to Tennessee But you’ll never be 23 with anyone but me We’ll always have Folly beach We’ll always have delta nights We’ll always be in between real love and real life You’ll always have your first last name Standing in that July rain Telling me your mind has changed But in my mind you’re still the same Long blonde hair You’ll always be Memphis queen You’ll always be my first time in New Orleans No matter where I go, no matter what I do I’ll never be 23, with anyone but you You can marry who you want Go back to Tennessee But you’ll never be 23 with anyone but me
