"Only Sixteen" is a song by American singer-songwriter Sam Cooke, released in May 1959. The song was a top 15 hit on ''Billboard's'' Hot R&B Sides chart and also charted within the top 30 of the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and the UK Singles Chart. It the UK it was covered, and taken to No. 1, by Craig Douglas. ==Background== "Only Sixteen" was inspired by the sixteenth birthday of Lou Rawls' stepsister, Eunice.〔 The song was originally intended for actor Steve Rowland, who often hung around the Keen studio. Rowland asked Cooke to write a song for him, and Cooke borrowed the bridge from an earlier song of his, "Little Things You Do". Rowland's manager disliked the song, and Cooke re-recorded it for himself.〔Guralnick, Peter (2005). ''Dream Boogie: The Triumph of Sam Cooke''. New York: Back Bay Books, p. 280-81.
