[Chorus]
N.C. B5
They're really rocking in Boston

In Pittsburgh, PA
B5
Deep in the heart of Texas

On down to Frisco Bay

All over Saint Louis

All the cats want to dance with
E5
Sweet little sixteen
[Verse 1]
B5
Sweet, sweet, sweet little sixteen
E5
She's got the grown up blues
B5
Tight dresses and lipstick
E5
She's sporting high heeled boots
A5
Oh but tomorrow morning
E5
She's gonna have to change her trend
B5
Become sweet sixteen
E5
And back in class again
[Bridge]
A5
Oh mommy, mommy
E5
Please, please may I go
B5
You know it's such a sight to see
E5
Somebody steal the show
A5
Oh daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy
E5
You know I beg of you
B5
Scream it to momma
E5
It's alright with you
[Chorus]
B5
Because they're rocking in New York
E5
In Philadelphia, PA
B5
Deep in the heart of Texas
E5
Down at the Rainbow L.A.
A5
All over Saint Louis

And down in New Orleans
B5
All the mothers want to do
E5
Sweet little sixteen
[Outro]
B5
Sweet, sweet, sweet sixteen
B5
She's so delicate
E5
She's just gotta have it
B5 E5
About half, half the number
