They're really rockin' in Boston
In Pittsburgh, PA
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 a half a million
Framed autographs
Her wallet filled with pictures
She got 'em one by one
She gets 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' in Boston
In Pittsburgh, PA
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
Yes they'll be rockin' on Bandstand
Philadelphia, PA
Deep in the heart of Texas
And round the Frisco Bay
Way out in St. Louis
And down to 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 morning
She'll have to change her trend
She'll be sweet sixteen
And back in school again
Well, they'll be rockin' in Boston
In Pittsburgh, PA
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
