PENNY LOAFERS AND BOBBY SOCKS
(Joe Bennett)
JOE BENNETT & THE SPARKLETONES
(ABC-PARAMOUNT 45-9867, 1957)

Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Penny loafers and bobby socks
She's sweet sixteen and she's really tops
She's got that crazy rhythm and she never stops
She wears penny loafers and bobby socks

Well, I got a girl, she used to be a square
She thought that Toscanini was a-everywhere
She said that Beethoven was the top of the pop
Till she heard the news about roll and rock

Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Penny loafers and bobby socks
Sweet sixteen and she's really tops
She's got that crazy rhythm and she never stops
She wears penny loafers and bobby socks

Penny loafers and bobby socks
Well, she's sweet sixteen and she's really tops
She's got that crazy rhythm and she never stops
She wears penny loafers and bobby socks

Everything is changin', now she likes to flirt
She wears blue jeans and a sloppy shirt
She's got big blue eyes, that light up like a fuse
She's gone when she hears those rhythm and blues

Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Penny loafers and bobby socks
Sweet sixteen and she's really tops
She's got that crazy rhythm and she never stops
She wears penny loafers and bobby socks

Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop
