Shangri-Las - Leader of the Pack Lyrics
(Spoken)
Is she really going out with him
Well, there she is. Let's ask her.
Betty, is that Jimmy's ring you're wearing
Mm-hmm
Gee, it must be great riding with him
Is he picking you up after school today
Uh-uh
By the way, where'd you meet him
I met him at the candy store
He turned around and smiled at me
You get the picture (yes, we see)
That's when I fell for (the leader of the pack)
My folks we're always putting him down (down, down)
They said he came from the wrong side of town
Whatcha mean when ya say that he came from the wrong side of town
They told me he was bad
But I knew he was sad
That's why I fell for (the leader of the pack)
One day my dad said, "Find someone new"
I had to tell my Jimmy we're through
Whatcha mean when ya say that ya better go find somebody new
He stood there and asked me why
But all I could do was cry
I'm sorry I hurt you (the leader of the pack)
(Spoken)
He sort of smiled and kissed me goodbye
The tears we're beginning to show
As he drove away on that rainy night
I begged him to go slow
But whether he heard, I'll never know
Look out! Look out! Look out! Look out!
I felt so helpless, what could I do
Remembering all the things we'd been through
In school they all stop and stare
I can't hide the tears, but I don't care
I'll never forget him (the leader of the pack)
The leader of the pack - now he's gone
The leader of the pack - now he's gone
The leader of the pack - now he's gone
The leader of the pack - now he's gone
