And a lot less bolder than you used to be

So you used to shake 'em down

But now you stop and think about your dignity

So now sweet sixteen's turned thirty-one

You get to feelin' weary when the work day's done

Well all you got to do is get up and into your kicks

If you're in a fix

Come back baby, rock and roll never forgets

You better get yourself a partner

Go down to the concert or the local bar

Check the local newspapers

Chances are you won't have to go too far

Yeah, the rafters will be ringing 'cause the beat's so strong

The crowd will be swaying and singing along

And all you got to do is get in, into the mix

If you need a fix

Come back baby, rock and roll never forgets

Ooh, the band's still playing it loud and lean

Listen to the guitar player making it scream

All you got to do is just make that scene tonight

Hey, tonight, ooh

Well now sweet sixteen's turned thirty-one

Feel a little tired, feeling under the gun

Well all of Chuck's children are out there playing his licks

Get into your kicks

Come back baby, rock and roll never forgets

Said you can come back baby, rock and roll never forgets

Oh, come back baby, rock and roll never forgets
