Get kicked out for
coming home at dawn...
Mom and Dad cursed
the day you were born...
Throw your clothes
into a duffle bag..
Shouting and slam
the door home is a drag...

Who can I turn to
and where can I stay?..
I heard a place is 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
Go into the luncheonette
and shoot a few games
Losing all your quarters
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...
Mom and Dad cursed
the day you were born...
Throw your clothes
into a duffle bag..
Shouting and slam
the door home is a drag...

Who can I turn to
and where can I stay?..
I heard a place is 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...
