[D] Sweet sixteen, goes to church just to [A] see the poor
Laughing, screams and giggles at every [D] little noise
Turns her face a little, then turns [G] her head a while
[A] [N] Everybody knows she's only putting on the [D] style, yeah
Putting on the agony, putting [A] on the style
That's what all the young folks are doing [D] all the while
And as I look around me, I'm [G] sometimes apt to smile
[A] She ain't only young folk, but ain't [D] only style
Well a young man in a hot rod car, driving [A] like he's mad
With a pair of yellow gloves, paid for off by [D] me bud
He makes it roar so lively, just to see his [G] girlfriend smile
[A] But she [D] knows he's only putting on the style
He's only putting [A] on the style
That's what all the young folks are doing all [D] the while
And as I look around me, I'm sometimes [G] apt to [A] smile
She ain't only young folk, but ain't [D] only style
Every tear in the open heart, is all [A] he might
He sings glory, hallelujah, but the boat's all [D] in a fright
Now you might think that Satan, is coming on [G] down your isle
[C#] But it's only our old preacher boys, that's putting on the style
[D] He's only putting on the agony, putting [A] on the style
That's what all the young folks are doing [D] all the while
