NOTE: I did NOT make this tab, I got it from http://bettylou.zzruss.com/donegan.htm, but
I decided to post it here since it wasn't here before, and since I'm becoming a fan,
it's easier for me as well this way. Great Skiffle from the king!
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
DSweet sixteen goes to church just to see the Aboys
Alaughs and screams and giggles at A7every little Dnoise.
DTurns her face a little, then D7turns her head aGwhile,
A (stop)
but everybody knows she's only putting on the style.
[Chorus]
She'sD putting on the agony, putting on the Astyle,
Athat's what all the young folks are A7doing all the Dwhile.
And Das I look around me I sD7ometimes have to Gsmile.
Aseeing all the young folks a'A7putting on the Dstyle.
[Verse 2]
YDoung man in the hot-rod car, driving like he’s Amad
AWith a pair of yellow gloves he’s A7borrowed from his Ddad
He Dmakes it roar so lively just to D7see his girlfriend Gsmile
A (stop)
But she knows he’s only putting on the style
[Chorus]
He's Dputting on the agony, putting on the sAtyle,
Athat's what all the young folks are A7doing all the Dwhile.
And Das I look around me I sD7ometimes have to Gsmile.
Aseeing all the young folks a'A7putting on a Dstyle.
[Verse 3]
DPreacher in the pulpit roars with all his Amight
Sing AGlory Hallelujah puts the A7folks all in a Dfright
Now Dyou might think he’s satan that’s a'D7coming down the Gaisle
A (stop)
But it’s only our poor preacher, boys, it’s putting on his style
[Chorus]
DPutting on the agony, putting on the Astyle,
Athat's what all the young folks are A7doing all the Dwhile.
And Das I look around me I sD7ometimes have to Gsmile.
Aseeing all the young folks a'A7putting on a Dstyle.
