Originally recorded by The Shangri-Las    "Hey, is he really goin' out with her?"  "There he is, let's ask him"  "Hey man, is that your ring she's wearin'?"  "Uh huh"  "Man, it must be great ridin' with her  Are you pickin' her up after school today?"  "Uh uh"  "By the way, where'd you meet her?"    I met her at the candy store  She turned around and smiled at me  You get the picture?  Yeah, we see  That's when she fell for  The leader of the pack    Her folks were always   putting me down (down, down)  They said I came from the wrong side of town  They told her that I was bad  But she knew I was sad  That's why she fell for  The leader of the pack    One day her dad said "find someone new"  She had to tell me that we were through  I stood there and asked her why  But all she could do was cry  "I'm sorry I hurt you"  The leader of the pack    She was so small  As she kissed me goodbye  Her tears were beginning to show  And as she drove away on that rainy night  I begged her to go slow  If she heard I'll never know  No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no    I felt so helpless what could I do?  Remembering all the things we'd been through  The gang they all stop and stare  I can't hide my tears but I don't care  I'll never forget her  The leader of the pack    Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack  And now she's gone  Leader of the pack    these lyrics are submitted by Bendele-Brown
