Young man in a Mustang
Driving like he's mad
With his highschool sweetheart
He's so very glad
He's singing oh so lively
Just to make the ladies smile
But they know he's only
Putting on the style
Chorus
Putting on the style
Putting on the style
That's what all the young folks
Are doing all the while
And as I look around me
I'm very apt to smile
To see so many people
Putting on the style
Sweet sixteen and goes to church
Just to see the boys
Laughs and giggles
At every little noise
She turns this way a little
And turns that way a while
But everybody knows she's only
Putting on the style
Chorus
Putting on the style
Putting on the style
That's what all the young folks
Are doing all the while
And as I look around me
I'm very apt to smile
To see so many people
Putting on the style
