Well, I got a girl, she used to be a square..she
thought that Toscanini was everywhere.
She said that Beethoven was the top of the pop..
til she heard the news about roll and rock.

Everything is changing now, she likes to flirt.
She wears her tatty blue jeans and a sloppy shirt.
She s got big blue eyes that light up like a fuse..
she s gone when she hears those rhythm and blues.

Penny loafers and bobby socks..well, she s
sweet sixteen and she s really tops..
she s got that crazy rhythm and she never stops.
She wears the penny loafers and bobby socks.
