The Shangri-Las — Leader Of The Pack

-Is she really going out with him? -Well, there she is. Let's ask her -Betty, is that Jimmy's ring you're wearing? -M-hm -Gee, it must be great riding with him. Is he picking you up after school today? -M-m -By the way, where'd you meet him? [Verse 1] 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 were always putting him down -Down, down They said he came from the wrong side of town -What you mean when you 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 -What you mean when you say that you 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, Leader of the Pack He sort of smiled and kissed me goodbye The tears were beginning to show As he drove away on that rainy night I begged him to go slow Whether he heard I'll never know No, no, no, no, no, no, no 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 Leader of the Pack, now he's gone
