You're Sixteen Lyrics


I was never much at findin' words
To say what's on my mind
Even dare describe what you mean to me
Would take a whole lifetime
So if it don't come out like Shakespeare
Or perfect poetry
Well just remember this
You're the only reason for me
Who I am and what I'm for
And why I'm here, it ain't a mystery no more
You're the power behind my every dream
You're the only reason for me
Diamonds and gold treasures untold
Once beheld this heart of mine
Riches of the earth carry no worth
If the soul's left unsatisfied
Ain't the years that's made the difference
In the man this world now sees

It's you, it's you, just you
You're the only reason for me
Who I am and what I'm for
And why I'm here, it ain't a mystery no more
You're the power behind my every dream
You're the only reason for me
You're the only reason for me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Johnny Burnette was a rockabilly pioneer in Memphis, TN, USA - with his older brother Dorsey Burnette &, a friend, Paul Burlison - founded Johnny Burnette & The Rock 'N' Roll Trio. Burlison was an electrician and pioneered the electric guitar effect known as the "rumble" in evidence on Burnette's earlier first hit "Train kept a'Rollin" achieved by leaving a capacitor loose in its fittings. All three worked with Elvis Presley while he was a truck driver, and followed him in resuming their search for stardom. The Burnettes and Burlison were all keen boxers.
