[G#]
Well they're really rocking in Boston, [C#] Pittsburgh, PA
Steve's man in [G#] the heart of Texas, shaking round a [C#] crystal bay
All [F#] over St.
Louis, Red Island, [C#] New Orleans
All [G#] the cats gonna dance with Sweet [C#] Little Sixteen
[F#] [C#] Sweet [G#] Little Sixteen
You just [C#] gotta have [G#] about a half a million
Pamed [C#] on the grass, a wallet [F#] full of pictures
You got them one [C#] by one, coming [G#] so excited
Oh, [C#]
[F#] leave me [C#] I go, such a sight [G#] to see
Somebody's [C#] still to show
Oh, [F#] [C#]
that's what [G#] I've in mind
Well I guess it's okay [C#] with you
Oh, so they're rocking [G#] on my stage
Still up there, [C#] Philadelphia, PA
Steve's man in the [G#] heart of Texas, strutting round a [C#] crystal bay
Yes, all over [F#] St.
Louis, Red Island, New [C#] Orleans
All the [G#] cats gonna dance with Sweet Little [C#] [F#] Sixteen
[C#] Yeah, [G#] [C#]
[G#] [C#]
[F#] [C#]
[A#m] [G#] [C#]
[F#] [C#] Sweet [G#] Little Sixteen
You got [C#] them grown up blues, [G#] high dressin' lips
Holding [C#] them high heel shoes
[E] But [F#] tomorrow morning, you're gonna [C#] change your dress
You're gonna be [G#] Sweet Sixteen, gonna shake and bang your [C#] glass again
Yeah, the [G#] ladies' man in Philly, [C#]
WPA
Down deep in the [G#] heart of Texas, man is shaking round [C#] a crystal bay
[F#] Yes, all over St.
Louis, Red Island, [C#] New Orleans
All the [G#] cats gonna dance with Sweet [C#] Little Sixteen
