Running Away

Well mama loved those drugs
and was always poppin' pill
Couldn't take it one day
Found her on the floor
Pills were scattered 'round
Dontcha know it was all my fault
Or at least that's what daddy says

Woke up the next day
Found out dad had gone away
The cops had fetcched him
Didn't put up a fight
And now I'm all alone

I'm running away
running, running
Got no where to go
Got no where to stay
No place to call my own
No place to call my home
I'm all alone

These city streets they are the demons
These alleyways the haunt me
They keep me up all night
and won't just let me be

Found Allen just the other day
Found him in the garbage can
cold and gone away

I'm running away
running, running
Got no where to go
Got no where to stay
No place to call my own
No place to call my home
I guess I'm all alone

Takin' a bus
Getting away
I'm leavin' out today
Don't know where I'll go
Don't know where I'll stay
But I gotta find a way

'Cause I'm all alone
I got no home
I got no home
I'm running away
I'm running away
