Teenager Runaway

Oh, away she blows
Out the door and down the street she goes
The levee won't hold
A young lost soul
She'll break away the shackles of the old
Daddy's girl
With all your mammas curls
Sneaking away
As morning turns to day
Teenager runaway

So the story goes
Another day another bird has flown
No-more will he preach
His worn out speech
She's going where his bible belt won't reach
Daddy's girl
Pawned her mothers pearls
Stealing away
As morning turns to day
Teenager runaway

Oh, Why did she leave me, Lord?
Oh, Where did my words fall short?
La La La La...
Teenager runaway
Runaway
Runaway
Oh, runaway
Oh, runaway
