I believe The Crests wrote this song originally... although many artists have covered it.
At work, we have a juke box, and this song, along with many others like it play all the time.
There are several other songs that play on the juke that mention age 16... and I'm wondering if the legal age was at one point 16 years of age, or if people like The Crests and Roy Orbison were looking for some statutory love...? LOLZ.
During the era, I don't think that they would have let such things fly if the legal age wasn't 16, unless of course there were marriage involved.
