Lyrics:

They're really rockin' in Boston, Pittsburgh, Pa.
Deep in the heart of Texas

And round the '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 just got to have

About half a million famed autographs
Her wallet filled with pictures
She got them one by one
Becomes 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
It's all right with Mommy
I guess it's ok with you

Cause they'll be rockin' on bandstands

In Philadelphia, Pa.
Deep in the heart of Texas

Way round the '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 them grown-up blues
Tight dresses and lipstick
She's sportin' high-heel shoes
Oh! but tomorrow morning
She's gonna change her trend
She'll be sweet sixteen
Struttin' back to class again

Oh, well they'll be rockin' in bandstands

Philadelphia, Pa.
Deep in the heart of Texas

Round the 'Frisco Bay
All over St Louis

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