    You guys she is NOT the next Taylor Swift. She is the one and only Kelsea Ballerini. She got to where she is because she is her own talented woman. Remember that. ;)

      Madi Prince yeah but saying her style is similar to that of Taylor is a compliment. I'm a huge swiftie and it's through that I discovered Kelsey and just fell in love with kelsea!! Both of them are amazing!

      Taylor Swift is talented too, she just sold out when she changed record companies, and they do have a similar style of music, well, the old Taylor Swift and Kelsea are similar, just saying.

    The thing about this song and the reason why it is SO brilliant, is that lots of songs talk about the outcasts and the tragedy of being an underdog, but no one talks about growing up and realizing that high school was just a chapter, and now your whole life awaits. To feel that you have done all there was to do in high school and not knowing what to do now... That is truly tragic

    [Verse 1]
    He's still driving that 1970 hand-me-down truck
    And he's still wearing that red and black jersey
    Waiting for the band to start up
    He's still showing up twenty late, finding hearts and rules to break
    Why would he wanna change when every memory still bows to him?
    [Chorus]
    But this ain't high school
    Where all you care about is if the pretty cheerleader thinks you're cool
    See her Friday, take her out after the football game
    'Cause it's five years later and you can't get off of the elevator
    That's going up, 'cause you're growing up
    And the world gets cruel when you're still living in high school
    [Verse 2]
    He's still calling that first love, first time, pretty-eyed blonde
    And she's still letting it ring 'cause his ring isn't what she wants
    'Cause she traded in prom queen for a big city dream
    And a slate that's clean, but
    Your heart just don't get it and that's why you can't forget it
    'Cause you're living like you're seventeen
    [Chorus]
    But this ain't high school
    Where all you care about is if the pretty cheerleader thinks you're cool
    See her Friday, take her out after the football game
    'Cause it's five years later and you can't get off of the elevator
    That's going up, 'cause you're growing up and the world gets cruel when...
    [Bridge]
    You're still living in the hallways
    Where everybody stopped and stared
    And cared and knew your name
    Cause this is the real world that don't know you like that
    You can remember but you can't go back
    [Chorus]
    To high school
    Where all you care about is if the pretty cheerleader thinks you're cool
    See her Friday when you take her out after the football game
    'Cause it's five years later and you can't get off of the elevator
    That's going up, 'cause you're growing up
    And the world gets cruel when you're still living in high school
    [Post-Chorus]
    When you're still living in...
    Five years later
    Oh yeah, oh yeah
    He's still calling that first love, first time
    And he hates he said goodbye, she went on with her life
    He's still driving the same old back roads
    Wondering when he got so old
    Where did his life go?
    Oh, but he knows
    Oh, he knows
    Yeah, he knows
    That this ain't high school, oh, woah
    And he's still driving that 1970 hand-me-down truck
    And he's stuck in high school
    But this ain't high school

    This song reminds me of the boys in highschool who used to bully me and other kids in our class. Seeing them 5 years later, they're still the same. I hope one day they realize we're not in highschool anymore and the world doesn't revolve around them. This song just gives me comfort and makes me feel better that we're out in the real world and I don't have to see them everyday anymore.

    I remember listening to this song five years ago when I had just finished up my senior year in high school and I can’t believe that, like this song says, it’s five years later and I’m still feeling stuck and I still feel like I haven’t gotten over high school but I’m hopeful and optimistic with some things that are coming up in my life that I will be able to get to the place where I want to be in work for cheaper things and I want to achieve in life so for that reason I love this song

    Finally a song that sounds good and is relatable, its not so common these days. everyone knows someone (or is someone) who is so stuck in high school with their behaviour and/or work ethic that it's pitiful. Lord knows that I try not to be that way but I know so many people like that.

'Cause she traded in prom queen for a big city dream

That's going up, 'cause you're growing up
And the world gets cruel when you're still living in high school

[Post-Chorus]
When you're still living in...
Five years later
Oh yeah, oh yeah
He's still calling that first love, first time
And he hates he said goodbye, she went on with her life
He's still driving the same old back roads
Wondering when he got so old
Where did his life go?
Oh, but he knows
Oh, he knows
Yeah, he knows
That this ain't high school, oh, woah
And he's still driving that 1970 hand-me-down truck
And he's stuck in high school
But this ain't high school

    Probably my favorite song on Apple Music's "Breaking Country" chart playlist right now. Just recently, it replaced "Unapologetically" on Ballerini's spot on the chart.

    I feel like a lot of her songs about young men who still aren't grown up
