"Cause they'll be rocking in Boston, and Pittsburgh PA, deep in the heart of Texas, and 'round the Frisco Bay, all over St. Louis, and down in New Orleans, all the cats wanna dance with" It's "Sweet Little Sixteen" by Chuck Berry

Chuck Berry wrote and recorded that song. It was later used by Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys. He changes the lyrics and had a huge hit with Surfin' USA!

They are right, it is "Sweet Little Sixteen" by Chuck Berry.
Lyrics:
----------
They're really rockin boston
In pittsburgh, p. a.
Deep in the heart of texas
And round the frisco bay
All over st. louis
Way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little sixteen
Sweet little sixteen
Shes just got to have
About half a million
Framed autographs
Her wallets filled with pictures
She gets em one by one
She gets so excited
Watch her look at her run
Oh mommy mommy
Please may I go
Its such a sight to see
Somebody steal the show
Oh daddy daddy
I beg of you
Whisper to mommy
Its all right with you
Cause theyll be rockin on bandstand
In philadelphia p.a.
Deep in the heart of texas
And round the frisco bay
All over st. louis
Way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little sixteen
Sweet little sixteen
Shes got the grown up blues
Tight dress and lipstick
Shes sportin high heal shoes
Oh, but tomorrow morning
Shell have to chang her trend
And be sweet sixteen
And back in class again
Cause theyll be rockin on bandstand
In philadelphia p.a.
Deep in the heart of texas and round the frisco bay
All over st. louis way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little sixteen
