Andrea Carroll - It Hurts to Be Sixteen lyrics
[Andrea Carroll - It Hurts to Be Sixteen lyrics]
(Ratta tang, ratta tang)
The kids are singing now
(Ratta tang-ja tang-ja tang)
Happy birthday, sweet sixteen
And so I smile and hope
(Ratta tang-ja tang-ja tang)
My tears will not be seen
Because I'm much too old to cry
(Too old to cry)
But still too young to find out why
(To find out why) oh, I'm so lonely
It hurts to be sixteen
(Ratta tang, ratta tang-ja tang-ja tang)
(Ratta tang, ratta tang)
Don't think that you're grown up
(Ratta tang-ja tang-ja tang)
When you become sixteen
Because like me you'll see
(Ratta tang-ja tang-ja tang)
You're only in between
They say that you're too old for toys
(Too old for toys)
But still you're much too young for boys
(Too young for boys) i hate to tell you
It hurts to be sixteen
I've found a wonderful guy (A wonderful guy)
I want to spend my life with him
(Spend my life with him)
They say we're too young to start
They're driving us apart
We're finished beforе we begin
I can't keep smiling through
(Ratta tang-ja tang-ja tang)
This bitter-sweet sixteen
This party's ovеr now
(Ratta tang-ja tang-ja tang)
If you know what I mean
To all of you who have shown up
(Who have shown up)
Come back next year, when I'm grown up
(When I'm grown up) but now please go
Because it hurts to be sixteen
(You know it hurts to be sixteen)
You know it hurts!
(They say it hurts to be sixteen)
I said it hurts!
(You know it hurts to be sixteen)
Oh, it hurts!
