Can anyone mail me the words to It's My Party by Lesley Gore. It was
released in 1963 and although I can find a lot of information on
Lesley, I can't find the lyrics anywhere.

Thanks

Here's what I remember. No claims made as to accuracy or
completeness.

Of course, there's also the sequel, "Now It's Judy's Turn to Cry", but
I'll leave that for someone else :).


It's My Party

Nobody knows where my Johnny has gone
But Judy left the same time.
Why was he holding her hand
When he's supposed to be mine?

CHORUS

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to,
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to.
You would cry too if it happened to you.

Play all my records, keep dancing all night,
But leave me alone for a while.
Till Johnny's dancing with me
I've got no reason to smile.

CHORUS

Judy & Johnny just walked through the door
Like a queen with her king.
Oh what a birthday surprise,
Judy's wearing his ring.

CHORUS

--
John A. Breen | I teleported home one night with Ron & Sid & Meg.
ja...@cec.wustl.edu | Ron stole Meggie's heart away, and I got Sidney's leg.
