Little lucy had grown quite tall
We said to her take it slow
The turnstiles turn the dress
That didnt hang quite so low
It didnt hang quite so low

Shed hang around the railway tracks
Watching the trains go by
She got on a long red train
And the on the platform waved bye bye
The on waved bye bye

Shes just a girl, not a bad girl
Hey, not that way
Shes just a girl, not a bad girl
Shes a runaway train

Wed tried to find which route she took
Or if shes coming back
No trace of her anywhere, we looked
Ask the weeds along the track
Ask the weeds along the track

Shes just a girl, not a bad girl
Hey, not that way
Shes just a girl, not a bad girl
Shes a runaway train

We said to her, take it slower
She said, I cant I got to go
I got to go, go, I got to go go
I got to go go, I got to go go

Look out!!! look out!!!
Look out!!! look out!!

She goes on never stopping
The wind now drives her along
The road she travelled, on & on
Theres always a wind-a-blowing
Theres always a wind-a-blowing

Shes just a girl, not a bad girl
Hey, not that way
Shes just a girl, not a bad girl
Shes a runaway train

Shes a run-a-way train
Shes a run-a-way train
Shes a run-a-way train
Shes a run-a-way train
