"What's So Sweet About Sweet Sixteen?" lyrics - THE RONETTES

What's sweet about sweet sixteen
When you're alone?
It's Saturday night (it's Saturday night)
The moon is so bright (the moon is so bright)
And I've got no one of my own

What's sweet about sweet sixteen
When no one's there?
I'm all by myself (I'm all by myself)
Like a doll on a shelf (like a doll on the shelf)
Who is oh, oh so lost to share

Friends all send me
Presents and flowers
Greeting cards engraved in gold
But what I really
Want for my birthday
Is someone that I can hold

What's sweet about sweet sixteen?
I'm so alone
There's one thing to do (there's one thing to do)
Go to sleep feeling blue (go to sleep feeling blue)
'Cause I've got no one of my own

(Sweet sixteen)

There's one thing to do (there's one thing to do)
Go to sleep feeling blue (go to sleep feeling blue)
'Cause I've got no one of my own
(What's sweet about sweet sixteen?)
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no one of my own
(What's sweet about sweet sixteen?)
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no one of my own
(What's sweet about sweet sixteen?)
