Lyrics

I met him at the can dy store, He (Em)turned a round and smiled at me, you get the pic ture?

Yes, we see.

That’s when I fell for the lead er of the (C)pack.

My folks were al ways put ting him down.

They said he came from the wrong side of (Bb)town.

They told me and he was bad,

But I know could he was sad,

That’s why ry I fell for the lead er of the (C)pack.

One day my dad said find some one new.

I had to tell my the Jim my we’re (Bb)through.

He stood there and asked me why,

But all I could do was cry,

I’m sor ry I hurt you, the lead er of the (C)pack.

(C)pack.

In school they all stop and stare, I (Em)can’t hide the tears, but I don’t care.

I’ll nev er for get him, the lead er of the (C)pack.
