Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You leave in the morning with everything you own in a little black case
Alone on the platform, the wind and the rain on a sad, lonely face
[Verse 2]
Your mama will never understand why you had to leave
But the answers you seek will never be found at home
The love that you need will never be found at home
[Verse 3]
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
[Verse 4]
Pushed around and kicked around, always a lonely boy
You were the one that they'd talk about around town, as they put you down
As hard as they would try, they'd hurt to make you cry
[Verse 5]
You never cried to them, just to your soul
No, you never cried to them, just to you soul
[Verse 6]
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (Crying to your soul)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (Crying to your soul)
(Crying to your soul) Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
(Crying to your soul)
[Verse 7]
Cowboy, cry
Cowboy, cry
Cry, boy, cowboy, cry
Cry, boy, cowboy, cry
Cry, boy, cowboy, cry
Cry, boy, cowboy, cry
Cry, boy, cowboy, cry
Cry, boy, cowboy, cry
[Verse 8]
You leave in the morning with everything you own in a little black case
Alone on a platform, the wind and the rain on a sad, lonely face
[Verse 9]
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away
