Lyrics for Sweet Little Sixteen

They're really rockin' in Boston In Pittsburgh, P.A. Deep in the heart of Texas And 'round the Frisco Bay All over St. Louis And down in New Orleans All the cats wanna dance with Sweet little sixteen Sweet little sixteen She's just got to have About half a million Framed autographs Her wallet filled with pictures She gets 'em one by one Become so excited Watch her, look at her run, boy Oh mommy, mommy Please may I go It's such a sight to see Somebody steal the show Oh daddy, daddy I beg of you Whisper to mommy It's all right with you 'Cause they'll be rockin' on Bandstand in Philadelphia P.A. Deep in the heart of Texas And 'round the Frisco Bay All over St. Louis Way down in New Orleans All the cats wanna dance with Sweet little sixteen 'Cause they'll be rockin' on Bandstand Philadelphia P.A. Deep in the heart of Texas And 'round the Frisco Bay All over St. Louis Way down in New Orleans All the cats wanna dance with Sweet little sixteen Sweet little sixteen She's got the grown-up blues Tight dresses and lipstick She's sportin' high heel shoes Oh, but tomorrow mornin' She'll have to change her trend And be sweet sixteen And back in class again Well, they'll be rockin' in Boston Pittsburgh, P.A. Deep in the heart of Texas And 'round the Frisco Bay Way out in St. Louis Way down to New Orleans All the cats wanna dance with Sweet little sixteen
