She was only sixteen, only sixteen
But I loved her so
She was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know

We'd laugh and we'd sing
and do funny things
And it made our hearts glow
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know

So why did I give my heart so fast
it never will happen again
But I was a mere child of sixteen
I've aged a year since then

She was only sixteen, only sixteen
oh with eyes that would glow
But she was too young to fall in love
and I was too young to know

(So why did I give my heart so fast)
Biy, it never will happen again
(But I were a mere child of sixteen)
Oh, I've aged a year since then

She was only sixteen, only sixteen
Oh but I loved that girl so
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
She was too young to fall in love
And I, I was too young, I was much too young know

I love you
For sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my
Given you my heart because I mmm you
And you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And say we'll never part

I think of you every morning
I dream of you every night
And I know I'm never lonely
Whenever you are in sight

I know I love you
And you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And tell we'll never part

I think of you every morning
Can I help it if I dream of you every night
No, no, no, no, I'm never lonely
Whenever you are in sight

I know that I love you
And you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And tell we will never part

My darling I love you
I love you

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your ma is good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky

But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

Working on the chain, ga-ang

Working on the chain, gang

All day long they work so hard till the sun is going down
Working on the highways and byways and wearing, wearing a frown
You hear they moaning their lives away
Then you hear somebody say

Working on the chain, ga-ang
That's the sound of the men,
Working on the chain, gang

Can't you hear them singing, mmm (Hoh! Ah!)

Working on the chain, ga-ang

Don't know much about history
Don't know much about biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the French I took

What I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be

Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
Don't know what a slide rule is for
What I do know, one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be

Now, I don't plan to be an A student
But I'm trying to be
For maybe by being an A student, baby
I can win your love for me

Don't know much about history
Don't know much about biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the French I took

What I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be

What I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be

If you ever, change your mind
About leaving, leavin' me behind
Oh-oh, bring it to me
