Summer and Sixteen Lyrics

Boy, you better do it now

While you got the chance

Might not have the moves

But she wants to dance

Look at her lookin' at you

You lucky fool

Man, she thinks you're cool

Better grab the moment

While the time is right

It'll come and go

Like a firefly light

She's standin' there shinin'

Like the moon in a July sky

Got your own set of wheels and a full tank of gas

Hold on tight, boy, it's gonna go fast

First real taste of what it's like to be free

Ooh, summer and sixteen

There's a party on the circle

Up on Chapel Hill

Part of me's a-wishin'

I was up there still

With my buddies and a beer

And my first love by my side

It's eleven thirty-five

Gotta leave now

'Cause you can't be late

It's a twenty minute drive

And her daddy won't wait

And you need that last five minutes

For that good night kiss

Man, I miss my own set of wheels and a cheap tank of gas

Hold on tight, man, we were going so fast

First real taste of what it's like to be free

Ooh, summer and sixteen

Sometimes, those memories feel so far away

And sometimes, it seems like yesterday

Got your own set of wheels and a full tank of gas

Hold on tight, boy, it's gonna go fast

First real taste of what it's like to be free

Got your own set of wheels and a full tank of gas

Hold on tight, boy, it's gonna go fast

First real taste of what it's like to be free

Ooh, summer and sixteen

Summer and sixteen
