Lyrics
She packed her things in a carpet bag
She left home, never lookin' back
Takin' care to cover up her tracks
Stoppin' over 'til she made a wage
Tellin' no one she was underage
A number on a missing persons page
Rings on her fingers, paint on her toes
She'll have her music wherever she goes
On her transistor radio
Family doctors, potions and pills
Hold no cure for a small town girl
She don't fit in the small town world
Runaway, runaway
Runaway, runaway
Darkness falls and finds her on her own
The sparkling highway just keeps rollin' on
And she's a thousand miles from home
Droppin' coins into a telephone
But all that answers is a ringin' tone
Sometimes it seems the whole world's not at home
Rings on her fingers, paint on her toes
She'll have her music wherever she goes
On her transistor radio
Family doctors, potions and pills
Hold no cure for a small town girl
She don't fit in the small town world
Runaway, runaway
Runaway, runaway
Runaway
