Lesley Gore - The Old Crowd lyrics

rate me

Sometimes I get to thinkin' 'bout 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

No one ever planned it, but every day at 4

We would get together at the corner candy store

We would just ignore the sign "No dancing allowed"

Oh wo yeah, I miss the old crowd

Sally was the funny one, Sue wore the hippest clothes

Eddie was the wise guy, there's always one of those

Johnny used to sing low-key but he was loud

Oh wo yeah, I miss the old crowd

Well now, it's 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

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 & our hearts were on a cloud

Oh wo yeah, how I miss the old crowd

(repeat & fade):

Yeah, I miss the old crowd
