Here's my story, it's sad but true
It's about a girl that I once knew
She took my love then ran around
With every single guy in town
.
Hey, hey
Whoa (bum de hey, de hey, de hey, hey)
Whoa (bum de hey, de hey, de hey, hey)
Whoa (bum de hey, de hey, de hey)
La, la, la, la
.
Whoa (hey, hey, bum de hey, de hey, de hey, hey)
(Bum de hey, de hey, de hey, hey)
(Bum de hey, de hey, de hey)
(Ah)
.
Yeah, I should have known it from the very start
This girl'll leave me with a broken heart
Ah, listen people what I'm telling youA keep away from a Runaround Sue, yeah
.
I might miss her lips and the smile on her face
The touch of our hand and this girl's warm embrace
So if you don't want to cry like I do
A keep away from a Runaround Sue...
