They're really rocking in Boston
in Philadelphia PA
deep in the heart of Texas
on down the Frisco Bay
All over Saint Louis 
and down in New Orleans
All the cats want to dance with 
sweet little sixteen

Sweet little sixteen 
she's just got to have 
about half a million 
framed autographs
Her wall is filled with pictures
she gets them one by one
Becomes so excited
oh watch her at the run boy. 
Oh mommy, mommy
please may I go
You know it's such a sight to see 
somebody steal the show 
Oh daddy, daddy
I beg of you
Please say it to mommy 
it's alright with you

Sweet little sixteen 
she's got the grown up blues
Tight dresses and lipstick
she's sporting in high-heeled boots
Oh but tomorrow morning 
she'll have to change her trend 
become sweet sixteen 
and back in class again

They're really rocking in Boston
in Philadelphia PA
deep in the heart of Texas 
and down the Frisco Bay
All over Saint Louis
on down in New Orleans
All the cats want to dance with 
sweet little sixteen
