lyrics

[Chorus]
Sixteen and drinkin forties
Nothing out of the ordinary
It’s all been done before me
I’ll make a way


[Verse 1]
Jake got kicked out, out of school
For selling drugs, and being a tool
I told him to run but he didn’t bother
The cops put the cuffs on him at his locker

Jake’s mom broke out in tears
His dad was a drunk and disappeared
His little sister got so stoned
I saw her by the river she was drinking alone, singing


[Chorus]
Sixteen and drinkin forties
Nothing out of the ordinary
Its all been done before me
I’ll make a way


[Verse 2]
MG, seventeen working a job
Falling in love with the local punk rock
Sneaking into bars with a smile and tight shirt
Talking to the bands and taking their picture

Well she said she’s getting out of here
Dropping out of school for a new career
She’s come so far shes got nothing to fear
From where she was this time last year


[Chorus]
Sixteen and drinkin forties
Nothing out of the ordinary
Its all been done before me
I’ll make a way

Four sixteen in the morning
Trippin down the road all drunk and horny
Its all been done before me
I’ll waste away

[Bridge]
Let me escape, the ordinary
Stuck in a place, that’s so fucking boring
Get me away, my mind is unsanitary
I don’t wanna be, another small town casualty

[Chorus]

Sixteen and drinkin forties
Nothing out of the ordinary
Its all been done before me
I’ll make a way

Four sixteen in the morning
Trippin down the road all drunk and horny
Its all been done before me
I’ll waste away

Sixteen
Nothing
For Me
I’ll make a way
Sixteen
Mourning
For me
I’ll waste away
