Sweet Little

CHORUS 1: 
G G7 C 
They‘re really rockin‘ in Boston, Pittsburgh, PA 
G G7 C 
Deep in the heart of Texas and round the Frisco Bay 
F C 
All over St. Louis, way down in New Orleans 
G G7 C 
All the cats wanna dance with Sweet Little 16 
 
Verse 1: 
Sweet Little 16, she‘s just got to have 
About a half a million framed autographs 
Her wallet‘s filled with pictures; she gets them one by one 
Becomes so excited; won‘t you look at her run, boy? 
 
Bridge: 
F C 
"Oh Mommy, Mommy, please may I go? 
G G7 
It‘s such a sight to see; somebody steal the show 
F C 
Oh Daddy, Daddy, I beg you 
G G7 
Whisper to Mommy it‘s all right with you" 
 
CHORUS 2: 
‘Cause they‘ll be rockin‘ on the bandstand 
Philadelphia, 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 16 
 
(instrumental, same pattern as verses and choruses) 
 
(chorus 2) 
 
Verse 2: 
Sweet Little 16, she‘s got the grownup blues 
Tight dresses and lipstick 
She‘s sportin‘ high-heeled shoes 
Oh, but tomorrow mornin‘ 
She‘ll have to change her trend 
And be sweet 16 and back in class again
