They´re really rockin´ in Boston
In Pittsburgh, P.A.
Deep in the heart of Texas
And ´round Frisco Bay
All over St. Louis

´Way down in New Orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet Little Sixteen

Sweet little sixteen
She´ just got to have
About a half a million
famed autographs
Her wallets filled with pictures
She get ´em one by one
Becomes so excited
Watch her, look at her run

´Cause they´ll be rockin´ on Bandstand
In Philadelphia, P.A.
Deep in the heart of Texas
And ´round 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 grownup blues
Tight dresses and lipstick
She´s sportin´ high heel shoes
Oh, but tomorrow morning
She´ll have to change her trend
And be sweet sixteen
And back in class again

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
