Get kicked out coming home at dawn

Mom and dad cursed the day you were born

Throw your clothes into a duffle bag

Shoutin as ya 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

Runnin 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

Shoutin as ya 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

Runnin faster faster all the time

You're under age and god knows that's a crime

Runaway boys
