Sweet Sixteen goes to church
Laughs and screams and giggles
And turns her head a while
She's only putting on the style
She's putting on the agony
That's what all the young folks
I sometimes have to smile
Seeing all the young folks
There's a young man in a hot rod car
With a pair of yellow gloves
He's borrowed from his dad
He makes it roar so lively
Just to see his girlfriend smile
That's what all the young folks
I sometimes have to smile
Seeing all the young folks
Puts the folks all in a fright
Now you might think it's Satan
That's a -comin' down the aisle
That's puttin' on his style
Yeah, he's puttin' on the agony
That's what all the young folks
I sometimes have to smile
Seeing all the young folks
that's what all the young folks
I sometimes have to smile,
seein' all the young folks
that's what all the young folks
and sometimes I just smile
Seeing all the young folks
