Hey, is he really goin out with her?
There he is, lets ask him
Hey man, is that your ring shes wearin?
Uh huh
Man, it must be great ridin with her
Are you pickin her up after school today?
Uh uh
By the way, whered you meet her?
I met her at the candy store
She turned around and smiled at me
You get the picture?
Yeah, we see
Thats 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
Thats 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
Im 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 Ill never know
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I felt so helpless what could I do?
Remembering all the things wed been through
The gang they all stop and stare
I cant hide my tears but I dont care
Ill never forget her
The leader of the pack
Leader of the pack
And now shes gone
