Sweet Little Sixteen (Demo) Songtext
von Chuck Berry

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
And down in New Orleans
All the Cats wanna dance with
Sweet little 16

Sweet little 16
She's just got to have
About half a million
A framed autographs
Her wallet's filled with pictures
She gets ′em 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
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 wanna dance with
Sweet little 16

'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 wanna dance with
Sweet little 16


Sweet little 16
She's got the grown up blues
Tight dress and lipstick
She′s sportin′ high heel shoes
Oh, but tomorrow morning
She'll have to chang her trend
And be sweet 16
And back in class again

But they′ll be rockin on bandstand
At Pittsburgh P.A.
Deep in the heart of Texas
And 'round the Frisco Bay
Way over St. Louis
Way down in New Orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little 16
