Jimmie & Joni Thompson}



1. Abandon and forgotten

By no choice of her own

Born from love unwanted

Toss away like a stone



2. Finding her comfort

In the arms of strangers

So young and innocent

Unaware of the dangers



CHOURUS X2

Runaway Child

Out in the Streets alone

No place to find love

No place to call home

LEAD BREAK

3. With no one to lead her

With no one to guide

She walking all alone

With time by her side



4. She turns cold and bitter

Worn out from her tears

To rough of life

For a child of her years



REPEAT CHORUS X2



CODA:

Runaway child



No place to find love

No place to call home



Runaway Child

Runaway Child

No place to call home

Out in the streets alone
