Representing Tennessee, ex-firefighter Tyler Braden brings the heat to the Semifinals with "Seventeen."

LYRICS:

We were a 22-dollar bottle of wine on a Letterman coat
Sneaking out late every Sunday night with nowhere to go
And I thought I knew everything there was to know
But she showed me how wrong I could be our first night alone
When we were seventeen

We were digging down deep
And howling at the moon
Caught somewhere between a little too late and way too soon
And we were seventeen

We were a 4-dollar pack of Marlboro Reds in a hand-me-down Ford
Spent every last dime we had seeing what that four on the floor would do
Everything we found just left us looking for more
They said don’t worry son, no one knows what it is they’re looking for
When you’re seventeen

We were wanting something more
But clinging to our roots
You were an angel in a sundress
I was a devil in boots
And we were seventeen
Oh, we were seventeen

(guitar solo)

I got that letter in the mail on the first of March
Taking me halfway across the country
Man, it nearly tore my heart in two
Wondering if what we thought we had could make it that far
Made me see I thought that life wasn’t supposed to be this hard
When you’re seventeen
We were seventeen
