"Party Crowd" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist David Lee Murphy. It was released in February 1995 as the third single from his debut album Out with a Bang. It peaked at number 6 in the United States, and number 7 in Canada, thus becoming his first top ten hit. The song was written by Murphy and Jimbeau Hinson.

The song is an uptempo, in which the narrator talks about how his lover just broke up with him, though she could not help but cry while doing so. Having told her not to worry about him "for the sake of her feelings and the sake of [his] pride," he goes on to say that he is "looking for a party crowd" to forget all of his troubles.

Billboard magazine reviewed the song unfavorably, saying that while Murphy is a fine writer and singer, he "seems intent on downplaying these attributes by releasing rowdy-but-flimsy singles like this." and "a little more muscle in the songwriting department might better show off this guy."

The music video was directed by Chris Rogers.

"Party Crowd" debuted at number 67 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks for the week of March 18, 1995.
