I'd Like To Be Sixteen Again

—Jimmy Martin

Oh the worst mistake I could ever make was to take that weddin' vow
'
Cause now I'm tied to a nagging wife and always in a row

Too scared to talk I'll walk the chalk, my head I'll meekly bow

And I'd like to be sixteen again and know what I know now

Chorus:
Yea, I'd like to be sixteen again and know what I know now

The girls I'd please with every squeeze and make em holler wow!

But its too late to change my fate, such things is not allowed

And I'd like to be sixteen again and know what I know now

I've spent my youth a runnin' round, well I thought I knew it all

But what I've learned it learned it hard and now my head is bald

I reminisce of things I missed, of fields I'd liked to plough

But I'd like to be sixteen again and know what I know now

My teeth are gone, I'm not too strong, don't have too much to build

And even a jug of Geritol won't change the way I feel

I'm like the dog too old to bite, all I can do is growl

But I'd like to be sixteen again and know what I know now
