When I first met you baby
Baby you were just sweet sixteen
When I first met you baby
Baby you were just sweet sixteen
You just left your home then woman
Ahh the sweetest thing I'd ever seen

But you wouldn't do nothing baby
You wouldn't do anything I asked you to
Ahh you wouldn't do nothing for me baby
Ahh you wouldn't do anything I asked to
You know you ran away from your home baby
And now you wanna run away from old B. too

You know I love you
And I'll do anything you tell me to
You know, you know I love you baby
Baby I love you and I'll do anything you tell me to
There's nothing in the world woman
Lord it ain't nothing
Nothing in the world I wouldn't do for you

You can treat me mean baby
But I'll keep on loving you just the same
Treat me mean, treat me mean baby
(I'll) keep on loving you just the samе
Ohh but one of these days baby
You'rе gonna give a lot of money
To hear someone call my name
Yes, sweet sixteen baby... sweet sixteen...
Ahh yes, the sweetest thing baby
Ohh you're the sweetest thing I ever seen
Lord, you know I'm having so much trouble people
Lord I wonder
Yes I wonder
Baby I wonder
Ahhh, Ooh I wonder what in the world's gonna happen to me
Whoa-ahh
Yes! Yes! Yes!
