You leave in the morning With everything you own In a little black case Alone on a platform The wind and the rain on a sad And lonely face
Mother will never understand Why you had to leave But the answers you seek Will never be found at home No the love that you need Will never be found at home
Run away, turn away Run away, turn away Run away [x2]
Pushed around and kicked around Always a lonely boy You were the one that they talk about Around town As they put you down And as hard as they would try They'd hurt to make you cry But you never cried to them Just to your soul No, you never cried to them Just to your soul
Run away, turn away Run away, turn away Run away [x2]
Johnny We're sorry Won't you come on home We're worried [x2]
Run away, turn away Run away, turn away Run away [x3]
Johnny Won't you come on home Johnny Won't you come on home Johnny We're sorry Won't you come on home We're worried
