Sweet Sixteen
When I first met you, baby
Baby you were just sweet sixteen
When I first met you, baby
Oh you were just sweet sixteen
You just left your home then, baby
The sweetest thing I'd ever seen
But you wouldn't do nothing for me baby
You wouldn't do anything I asked to
You wouldn't do nothing for me, baby
You wouldn't do anything I asked to
You know you ran away from your home, baby
And now you wanna run away from old B. too
You know I love you, baby
I loved you before I could call your name
You know I loved you, baby
Baby I love you, I loved you before I could call your name
Well, it seems like everything I do now baby
Everything I do is in vain
My brother's in Korea, baby
My sister's down in New Orleans
Brother's in Korea, baby
My sister's down in New Orleans
You know I'm having so much trouble, people
Baby, I wonder, what in the world is gonna happen to me
Treat me mean, baby
And I'll keep on lovin' you just the same
Treat me mean, baby
I'll keep loving, keep on loving you just the same
But one of these days, baby
You're gonna give a lot of money
To hear someone call my name
Yes, sweet sixteen, baby
Sweet sixteen
Yes, the sweetest thing, baby
Ohw yes, the sweetest thing I ever seen
You know I'm having so much trouble, baby
Baby I wonder
Yes I wonder
Baby I wonder
Oh, I wonder what in the world's gonna happen to me
Baby you were just sweet sixteen
When I first met you, baby
Oh you were just sweet sixteen
You just left your home then, baby
The sweetest thing I'd ever seen
But you wouldn't do nothing for me baby
You wouldn't do anything I asked to
You wouldn't do nothing for me, baby
You wouldn't do anything I asked to
You know you ran away from your home, baby
And now you wanna run away from old B. too
You know I love you, baby
I loved you before I could call your name
You know I loved you, baby
Baby I love you, I loved you before I could call your name
Well, it seems like everything I do now baby
Everything I do is in vain
My brother's in Korea, baby
My sister's down in New Orleans
Brother's in Korea, baby
My sister's down in New Orleans
You know I'm having so much trouble, people
Baby, I wonder, what in the world is gonna happen to me
Treat me mean, baby
And I'll keep on lovin' you just the same
Treat me mean, baby
I'll keep loving, keep on loving you just the same
But one of these days, baby
You're gonna give a lot of money
To hear someone call my name
Yes, sweet sixteen, baby
Sweet sixteen
Yes, the sweetest thing, baby
Ohw yes, the sweetest thing I ever seen
You know I'm having so much trouble, baby
Baby I wonder
Yes I wonder
Baby I wonder
Oh, I wonder what in the world's gonna happen to me
