Judy’s Turn to Cry Lyrics
[Chorus]
'Cause now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
[Verse 1]
Oh, when Judy left with Johnny at my party (My party)
And came back wearing his ring
I sat down and cried my eyes out
Now that was a foolish thing
[Chorus]
'Cause now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
[Verse 2]
Well, it hurt me so to see them dance together (Together)
I felt like making a scene
Then my tears just fell like rain drops
'Cause Judy's smile was so mean
[Chorus]
But now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
'Cause now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
[Verse 1]
Oh, when Judy left with Johnny at my party (My party)
And came back wearing his ring
I sat down and cried my eyes out
Now that was a foolish thing
[Chorus]
'Cause now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
[Verse 2]
Well, it hurt me so to see them dance together (Together)
I felt like making a scene
Then my tears just fell like rain drops
'Cause Judy's smile was so mean
[Chorus]
But now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Oh, one night I saw them kissing at a party (A party)
So I kissed some other guy
Johnny jumped up and he hit him
'Cause he still loves me, that's why
[Chorus]
So now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
[Chorus (Fade)]
Yay, now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
[Verse 3]
Oh, one night I saw them kissing at a party (A party)
So I kissed some other guy
Johnny jumped up and he hit him
'Cause he still loves me, that's why
[Chorus]
So now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
[Chorus (Fade)]
Yay, now it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry, Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back to me
