Just a couple off the top of my head:
"Let's Go" by the Cars
"Sexy and 17" by the Stray Cats
and the grand-daddy of them all, "Your 16, (Your Beautiful and You're Mine) by Ringo Starr (he was 33 when that was released)

I Saw Her Standing There by The Beatles
"Well she was just 17, if you know what I mean, and the way she looked was way beyond compare."
"Wrong Way" - Sublime
I saw him standing there by the record machine
I knew he must have been about 17
Also Beyoncé- Baby Boy
Winger!
She's only 17.... 17! Daddy says she's too young, but she's old enough for me!
Kiss
Christine 16!

Christine Sixteen
KISS
She's got me dizzy, she sees me through to the end
She's got me in her hands and there's no use in pretending
Christine sixteen, Christine sixteen
She drives me crazy, I want to give her all I've got
And she's hot every day and night, there is no doubt about it
Christine sixteen, Christine sixteen
I don't usually say things like this to girls your age
But when I saw you coming out of the school that day
That day I knew, I knew (Christine sixteen)
I've got to have you, I've got to have you
She's' been around, but she's young and clean
I've got to have her, can't live without her, whoa no
Christine sixteen, Christine sixteen
Gary Puckett was one of the godfathers of this topic:

"This girl walked in dreams playing in a world of her own
This girl was a child existing in a playground of stone
Then one night her world was changed
Her life and dreams were rearranged
And she would never be the same again"
Not exactly glamorizing it, but definitely expressing it: Don't Stand So Close To Me - The Police
definitely a change in what is appropriate going on.
I watched animal house recently -
a thirteen year old girl is shown jokingly getting drunk and probably doing the deed with a college guy
women are thrown in the back of cars, shown happy about it later.
I don't think these things could be done these days.
"My Sharona" The Knack
Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty mind
I always get it up, for the touch of the younger kind
30 years ago, for adult men to be pursuing underage females, it was racy but accepted as normal behavior and even glorified.

How about Van Halen's "Hot for Teacher" as inappropriate? Remember the video...
At least in my state, 17 is not underage. The age of consent here is 16.

Yeah, but no one on here cares about facts. They just want to demonize and ridicule people based on their limited perspectives (in this case, thinking that the law in their city must be the law everywhere).

The age of consent has been 16 in the UK for about 100 years or so.
Most of these songs are probably celebrating the girl becoming legal.
"Mellow Yellow" by Donovan had a verse about a 14-year-old girl.
