Sixteen cubes of sugar on a gown of pink and white
Happy Birthday darlin'
You're sweet sixteen tonight
While you wear sixteen cubes of sugar
I'll be thinking all the while
Just two more cubes of sugar
And I'll walk you down the aisle
When they light the candles on the birthday cake
And the time for wishin' there's a wish I'll make
I'll think about the futures as we stand side by side
When they sing: "Happy Birthday"
I'll hum here comes the bride
Darlin' I'm not jealous if you care to dance
With the other fellas but they don't stand a chance
Johnny, Joe and Jimmy can whirl you round the room
They'll wind up as ushers but I'll wind up the groom.
