Deep in the heart of Texas,
with Sweet Little Sixteen
Her wallet's filled with pictures
Won't you look at her run
Daddy, daddy I think of you
Whisper to mama it's all right with you
she's got the grown -up blues
Tight dresses and lipstick,
sportin' high -heeled shoes
she'll like to change her trend
They're really rockin' on Bandstand,
Deep in the heart of Texas,
all around the Frisco Bay
All over St. Louis, down to New Orleans
Well, everybody's gotta dance
with Sweet Little Sixteen
That everybody's gonna dance
with the sweet little fifteen
That everybody's gonna dance
with the sweet little fourteen
That everybody's gonna dance
with the sweet little thirteen me.
