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 ? Where can I stay ?
I heard a place that's 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 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 ? Where can I stay ?
I heard a place that's 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)
Runaway boys (Runaway boys)
Runaway boys (Runaway boys).
