Get kicked out for coming home at dawn
Your Mum and Dad cursed the day you were born
Throw your clothes into a duffel bag
Shouting and slam the door
At home it's a drag
Who can I turn to?
Where can I stay?
I've heard of places
Open all night and all day
There's a place you can go
Where the cops don't know
You can act real wild
They don't treat you like a child
Runaway boys
Your hair's all greasy and you feel like a slob
You're only fifteen and you can't get a job
Run into the lunchette and shoot a few games
Who's the lonely boy, man it's always the same
Steal a couple of bucks to buy a new toy
Slip into the alley with the runaway boys
Runaway boys
Running faster, faster all the time
You're under age and God knows that's a crime
Get kicked out for coming home at dawn
Your Mum and Dad cursed the day you were born
Throw your clothes into a duffel bag
Shouting and slam the door
At home it's a drag
Who can I turn to?
Where can I stay?
I've heard of place
Open all night and all day
There's a place you can go
Where the cops don't know
You can act real wild
They don't treat you like a child
Runaway boys
Running faster, faster all the time
You're under age and God knows that's a crime
Runaway boys
Runaway boys
Runaway boys
Runaway boys
Runaway boys.
