Happy birthday sweet sixteen
Tonight's the night I've waited for
because you're not a baby anymore
You've turned into the
prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
What happened to that funny face?
My little tomboy now wears satin and lace
I can't believe my eyes
you're just a teenage dream
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
When you were only six
I was your big brother
Then when you were ten
we didn't like each other
When you were thirteen
you were my funny valentine
But since you've grown up
your future is sewn up
From now on you're gonna be mine, so
If I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown
up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest
girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
If I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown
up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest
girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
