Lyrics

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
 Way 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 wallet filled with pictures
 She gets them one by one
 Become so excited
 Watch her, look at her run
 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 want to 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
 Come sweet sixteen
 And back in class again
 But 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 want to 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)
 (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)
 (They'll be rockin' on Bandstand)
 (In Philadelphia 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 want to 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)
 (And be sweet sixteen)
 (And back in class again)
 ('Cause they'll be rockin' on Bandstand)
 In Philadelphia P.A.
 Deep in the heart of Texas
 And 'round the Frisco Bay (All over Detroit!)
 All over Detroit
 Way down in New Orleans
 All the cats want to dance with
 Sweet little sixteen
