6. It’s My Party

5 October 1973

(Wiener/Gold/Gluck jnr.)

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

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

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

Judy and Johnny just walk through the door
Like a queen with her king
Oh, what a surprise
Judy’s wearing his ring

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
