Runaway

I've known it for a long time Daddy wakes up to a drink at night Disappearing all night I don't wanna know where he's been lying I know what I wanna do I wanna runaway Runaway with you Gonna grab clothes, six in the morning, go How long you leavin'? Well, Dad just don't expect me back this evening Oh it could take a bit of time to heal this It's been a long day Almost out of the roadway But I love him from the skin to my bones But I don't wanna live in this home There's nothing to say 'cause he knows I'll just runaway and be on my own I've never seen my dad cry Cold as stone in the kitchen light I tell you it's about time But I was raised to keep quiet And this is what I'm gonna do Gonna runaway, gonna make that move Gonna grab clothes, and when it's morning, go How long you leavin'? Well, Dad just don't expect me back this evening Oh it could take a bit of time to heal this It's been a long day Almost out of the roadway But I love him from the skin to my bones But I don't wanna live in this home There's nothing to say 'cause he knows I'll just runaway and be on my own Back pack, and a flat cap, turned to the back 'Cause I packed my clothes up My dad was a man without plans of attack and tends to show that I don't wanna live this way Gonna take my things and go If things change in a matter of days Could be persuaded to hold up And mama was the same None of us are saints I guess that God knows that I don't wanna runaway And one of these days I might just show that Put my home in a suitcase Tie both shoelaces, and hope that Things change, but for now I leave town with a backpack on my shoulder But I love him from the skin to my bones But I don't wanna live in this home There's nothing to say 'cause he knows I'll just runaway and be on my own
