The Old Crowd
Lesley Gore
The Old Crowd:Lesley Gore. Flip side of ’She’s A Fool’ which hit #5 on BB Hot 100 on MERCURY Records in 1963. INTRO: Sometimes I get to thinkin’ about days gone by..and I start cryin’ every time. What I wouldn’t give if I could just relive one day with those old friends of mine. #1. No one ever planned it but every day at four we would get together at the corner candy store. We’d just ignore the sign ’no dancing allowed.’ Oh oh oh yeah how I miss the old crowd. #2. Sally was the funny one Sue wore the hippest clothes. Eddy was the wise guy there’s always one of those. Johnny used to sing off key but boy he was loud. Oh oh oh yeah how I miss the old crooowd. BRIDGE: Well now it is funny when high school days are through..friendships always come to an end. Everybody tells you they’ll keep in touch yeah.. but you don’t see them again oh no. #3. It’s not that I’m unhappy I know I still have you. But I still think about those good times we knew. We were so carefree then our hearts were on a cloud. Oh oh oh yeah how I miss the old croooowd. Oh how I miss the old crowd..yeah how I miss the old crowd....(Fade.) A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
