Lesley Gore - The Old Crowd w/ LYRICS

The Old Crowd - Year Song Released 1963

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 just ignore the sign "No dancing allowed".
Oh who-oh-oh-oh yeah, How I miss the old crowd.

Sally was the funny one, Sue wore the hippest clothes.
Eddie was the wise guy, theres always one of those.
Johnny used to sing off-key, But boy he was loud.
Oh who-oh-oh-oh yeah, How I miss the old crowd.

Well now, it's funny when high school days all 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 and our thoughts were on a cloud.
Oh who-oh-oh-oh yeah, How I miss the old crowd.

(repeat fading out):
Yeah, I miss the old crowd

My fav Lesley Gore song - Have you ever wished you were back in your youth once again and remember all the fun you had with your friends then, so care free! This song says it all.

Was in high school in the 60's and boy this song does bring

back great memories. Whatever happened to music like this.

Kids today get to listen to absolute CRAP!!

@shout102 I'm sure being a teenager in Australia had its fun moments. What was it like for you?

[Durhamsmosthaunted]

I remember being a teenager moving away and crying to this song. And she is right, Everybody does say they will keep in touch but never do.
