 Sweet sixteen goes to church just to see the boys

 laughs and screams and giggles at every little noise.

 Turns her face a little, and turns her head awhile,

 but everybody knows she's only putting on the style.

 She's putting on the agony, putting on the style,

 that's what all the young folks are doing all the while.

 And as I look around me I sometimes have to smile.

seeing all the young folks putting on the style.

 Young man in the hot-rod car, driving like he’s mad

 With a pair of yellow gloves he’s borrowed from his dad

 He makes it roar so lively just to see his girlfriend smile

But she knows he’s only putting on the style

Preacher in the pulpit roars with all his might

Sing Glory Hallelula with the folks all in a fright

Now you might think he’s satan that’s coming down the aisle

But it’s only our poor preacher, boys, it’s putting on his style
