"Judy's Turn to Cry" is a song written by Beverly Ross[1] and Edna Lewis that was originally released by Lesley Gore in 1963.

[2] Allmusic critic Joe Viglione describes "Judy's Turn to Cry" as having "a monstrous hook as valuable as 'It's My Party' with violence that may have been inspired by The Crystals pushing the envelope with their withdrawn classic 'He Hit Me (It Felt Like a Kiss)'".

[7] Music journalist Lillian Roxon commented that "you could savor every bitchy second of Lesley's triumph with her sequel 'Judy's Turn to Cry"".

[14][15] Cash Box described the song as "a stompin’ multi-track sequel to [Gore's] initial success" and praised Claus Ogermann's arrangement.

Cash Box described it as "a 'Song of India' teen re-write handclapper that also stomps along in smash style" and praised Ogermann's arrangement on this song too.
