lyrics
Mama said he was a running man, fast as he can, no looking back
Said he left the southern night in June, with a friend name Jack, 1962
Caught in the middle, just a boy, solving a riddle without a choice
Making ‘em think about running too, yeah
He’s just another young runaway, breaking free, free
Just another young runaway
Twist of fate deserves another look, he was an open book, each chance he took
Mama said she knew he’d never stay, always something else getting in the way
Caught in the middle, just a boy, minus some answers but he endured
His whole life will keep him moving on
He’s just another young runaway, breaking free, free
He’s just another young runaway
And no he don’t know where he’s going, He’s happy, are you happy
I wonder do you know where you’re going.
Sometimes I don’t know if I do, I mean it’s up to you
Sherriff said I’m truly sorry son, he was a wanted man, out on the run
And when he saw flashing light a blue, he stepped on the gas, made that mother move
The rest is history to a boy, uncovered the mystery once a for all
And now he’s thinking about settling down
He’s just another young runaway, breaking free, free free
He’s just another young runaway, breaking free, free free
He’s just another young runaway, breaking free, free free
He’s just another young runaway
Mama said he was a running man, fast as he can, looking back
