And the way she looked was way beyond compare,
Oh how could I dance with another, when I saw her standing there...

Did you check out the lyrics to the sequel "Little Marie?"

Link and excerpt:

Which love one is calling me
I did not hear you say
Both are deep within my heart
Her mom and my Marie

Well, it was okay when they sang it when they were in their early 20s. But yes, Lennon was performing it in his 30s live. THAT would be creepy.

I have it on good authority that Chuck Berry was performing "Sweet Little Sixteen" into his 80s.

Ringo Starr recorded "You're 16, You're Beautiful, and You're Mine" when he was in his 30s.

How long was Neil Sedaka performing "Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen"?

For a counter, there is the truly dreadful "Run Joey, Run". The girl in the record sounds like she's about 13, and we are supposed to be rooting for the cowardly, stupid boyfriend.

Everybody come in here 17.
Used to have nice couples come in here.
People 35, 30.
Used to sit down, hold hands,
Split a bowl of chop suey, eat a little rice.
It was so nice.

Now the people come in here all the same age.
I asked a girl the other day,"how old are you?"
She said, "17"; I said, "that's nice. How old is your friend?"
She said, "17"; "How old is your mother?" She said, "17"; "Your father?" "17."
What's the matter/ Everybody's 17?
What happened to 18? What happened to 19? What happened to 20?

Love for sale
Appetizing young love for sale
If you want to buy my wares
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale.

Too Much Fun by Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen:

“She was only 17. New to L.A
I was more than willing to show her the way
Cruised up Sunset Back down Vine
I liked hers She liked mine
When her pappy caught me he said look here son
You’re going to jail for having too much fun
Too much fun thats news to me
Too much fun there must be
A whole lot things that I aint never done
But I aint never had too much fun”

Rod Stewart - Hot Legs

Imagine how my daddy felt
In your jet black suspender belt
Seventeen years old,
He’s trudging sixty four
You got legs right up to your neck
You’re makin’ me a physical wreck
I’m talkin’ to you
Hot legs in your satin shoes
Hot legs, are you still in school?
Hot legs, you’re makin’ me a fool
I love you, honey

Thanks for the link. So it’s a divorced or separated Dad who left his home in Memphis and he’s going back to his wife and daughter? Wow...totally different than I thought. Nice lyrics. I had no idea there was a sequel. Thanks for pointing that out!

Dr. Hook:

Only 16

She was too young to fall in love, and I was too young to know...

And of course The Big Bopper: "Ain't nothin' in the world like a big-eyed girl to make me act so funny make me spend my money.

Wigglin' walk, and gigglin' talk make the world go round"...

Don't tell me THAT song isn't about an underaged girl.

According to Richard Berry, this song was a major inspiration for Louie, Louie.

They have already “edited” and entire Verse from the Dire Straits Song Money for Nothing.

I thought XM didn’t do it, but the Verse was missing from the Song when heard it the other day. PC gone mad.

Haven’t heard the “Artist” complain about his work being altered by those mean Corporate types.

The Verse?

See the little faggot with the earring and the makeup
Yeah buddy that’s his own hair
That little faggot got his own jet airplane
That little faggot he’s a millionaire

What do you think, they don’t like Earrings, Hair, Airplanes or Millionaires? LOL

She's 21 (And My Dad's 52)--Webb Pierce (1967)

Firt time I've heard that one. It was apparently released on an LP, but not as a single.

I just heard the Stones' "Stray Cat Blues" a on a local classic rock station a couple of days ago. Hadn't thought of that song in a long time. Kind of surprised they played it.

I can see that you're fifteen years old
No I don't want your I.D.
You look so rest-less and you're so far from home
But it's no hanging matter
It's no capital crime

Oh yeah, you're a strange stray cat
Oh yeah, don'tcha scratch like that
Oh yeah, you're a strange stray cat
Bet your mama don't know you scream like that
I bet your mother don't know you can spit like that.

If you're going to purge a song, how about this one?
