It's My Party lyrics

[Chorus]

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

Nobody knows where my Johnny has gone

But Judy left the same time

Why was he holding her hand

When he’s supposed to be mine?

[Chorus]

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

‘Til Johnny’s dancing with me,

I’ve got no reason to smile

[Chorus]

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

[Instrumental Bridge]

Judy and Johnny just walked through the door

Like a queen with her king

Oh, what a birthday surprise

Judy’s wearing his ring

[Chorus]

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

[repeat and fade out]
