Lyrics:
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?

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 awhile
′Til 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 walked through the door (walked through the door)
Like a queen with her king
Oh, what a birthday 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

Oh, 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
It′s my party, and I′ll cry if I want to
