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 that lays
I can't believe my eyes, you're just a teenager
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 won with Buddy Valentine
But since you've grown up, your future is sewn up
From now on, you're my baby
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
Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, 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

Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen
