Walter Egan Baby Let's Run Away lyrics

Your ma' gets mad when we stay out late
Your own front door's just a prison gate
What do you say? Baby, let's run away

There's no way we're gonna keep livin' these rules
We're through waitin' now, we're through being fools
Don't hesitate, baby, let's run away
Baby, let's run away

Let's run away and never be found
Ain't no use in hanging around
I know, ooh baby, let's run away

My car's at the curb with a full tank of gas
You say the word and we'll be gone in a flash
What do you say? Baby, let's run away

The world gets older but the kids stay young

I don't understand where it's coming from
I can't relate, baby, let's run away

Your ma' gets mad
If we stay out late
Let's run away, don't hesitate

My car's outside with a full tank of gas
Runs real clean, runs real fast
Runaway now, we'll never be found
Sick and tired of hanging around

I know, ooh baby, let's run away
C'mon baby, let's run away
