Whoa yeah

She was down and out, had just enough

Of the things to keep a young girl alive

It was gettin' rough, but she soon got tough

To the fact of makin' sure she survived

She was out of luck, she didn't have a buck

So I laid it to her straight on the line

Get up for me baby

Come on we're gonna have a good time

My my baby, come on we're gonna have a good time

Over here

Sooner or later, girl, I will persuade ya

Just to gimme gimme gimme what you got

Well I don't have a lover, that would blow my cover

Come on and give some of your rock 'n' roll love

I was feelin' great, I didn't hesitate

So I looked the girl right in the eye

Baby baby baby, come on we're gonna have a good time

So I got right down to it

Sweet sixteen never looked so good before

You know I always knew it

But this time I knew better than before, oh dig it

You know I didn't say much, but I guess I said enough

Cause the two of us were doin' really good

When the sun came a risin', I was realizin'

That I had to have her with me if I could

I was feelin' great, I didn't hesitate

So I looked the girl right in the eye

Baby baby baby, come on we're gonna have a good time

So I got right down to it

Sweet sixteen never looked so good before

You know I always knew it

But this time I knew better than before

You know, I almost blew it

But she held me back away from the door

And we got right down to it, ooh, we did
