You played hooky from schoolAnd you can't go out to play, yeahMama said for the rest of the weekIn your room you gotta stay, yeahNow you feel like the whole world's pickin' on youBut deep down inside you know it ain't trueYou've been punished 'cause your motherWants to raise you the right way, yeahBut you don't care, 'cause you already made up your mindYou wanna run away, yeah you're on your wayRun away child, running wildRun away child, running wildBetter come back home, better come back homeWhere you belong, where you belongRoaming through the city, going nowhere fastYou're on your own at lastHey it's getting late, where will you sleepGettin' kind-a hungry, you forgot to bring something to eatOh, lost with no money, you start to cryBut remember you left home wanting to be grownSo dry your weepin' eyesSiren screamin' down, neon light is flickin', you want your mamaAh, there's nothing for youYou're frightened and confused I want my mamaBut she's much too far awayShe can't hear a word you sayYou heard some frightening news on the radioAbout little boys running away from homeAnd their parents don't see them no moreYou wanna stop hitch a ride and go homeBut your mama told you never trust a strangerAnd you don't know which way to goStreets are dark and desertedNot a sound nor sign of lifeHow you long to hear your mother's voice'Cause you're lost and alone but remember you made the choiceRun away child, running wildYou, better go back home where you belongRun away child, running wildYou, better go back home where you belongYou're lost in this great big cityGo back home where you belongNot one familiar face; ain't a pity?Go back home where you belongOh, runaway child runnin' wildYou'd better go back home where you belongRun away child, running wildYou, better go back home where you belongMama, mama, please, come and see about me!But she's much too far away; she can't hear a word you sayYou're frightened and confused; which way will you choose?
