Sweet Sixteen

I got a sweet little angel,

I love the way she spread her wings

Yes, I got a sweet little angel,

I love the way she spread her wings

Yes, when she spread her wings around me,

I get joy in most everything

You know I asked my baby for a nickel,

And she gave me a twenty dollar bill

Oh, yes, I asked my baby for a nickel,

and she gave me a twenty dollar bill

You know I asked her for a little drink of liquor,

and she gave me a whiskey still!

Ah yes, asked my baby to quit me,

well, I do believe I will die

Yes, I asked my baby to quit me,

well, I do believe I will die

'Cause, if you don't love me little angel,

please, tell me the reason why.
