When I first met you baby

You were just sweet sixteen

You just left me home baby

The sweetest thing I'd ever seen

But you would not do

You would not do anything I asked you to

Now you ran away from your home baby

Now you gonna run away from me too

Well my brother is in Korea

And my sister down in New Orleans

Guess my mother is up in heaven

Now what's gonna happen to me

Yes I love you

I always love you

Ever since I call your name

'Cause you like everything I do

Oh as did in vain

Sweet sixteen sweet sixteen

Sweet sixteen sweet sixteen

Well the sweetest thing that I'd ever seen

Sweet sixteen
