Sweet Sixteen is the sixteenth studio album by American country singer Reba McEntire, released on May 1, 1989 by MCA Records. Four singles from the album entered the Billboard country charts: the number one hits "Cathy's Clown" (a cover version of The Everly Brothers' song) and "Walk On", and the top ten hits "'Til Love Comes Again" and "Little Girl". Sweet Sixteen was her penultimate album with record producer Jimmy Bowen. Reba Live would be her last.

The album's title derives from its being McEntire's sixteenth album, counting compilation and Christmas albums.

The album was certified Platinum by the RIAA, for selling over 1 million copies.[2] The album debuted at #17 on the Country Albums chart for the week of May 27, 1989, and peaked at #1 for the week of June 24, 1989. It stayed at #1 for 13 consecutive weeks. The album sold over 500,000 copies in its first 9 weeks.
