                     A                           D
Deep in the heart of Texas and around the Frisco Bay.

see somebody steal the show.
           G               D               A

All over St. Louis, way down in New Orleans.

                A                                  D
Tight dress and lipstick, she's sportin' high heel shoes.
                 G                               D
Oh, but tomorrow morning, she's gonna changa her trend.

And be sweet sixteen and back in class again.
