Johnny Run Away lyrics

Johnny was a young boy, he liked playing at the park

And Johnny said "Oh oh oh, dad can you take me now?"

Johnny was young, never hurt no-one, too early for that

He was at the park, he met a boy named Jimmy

He's a cutie

And he chose him oh

Take my heart, take my soul, share my crayons, share my goals

His daddy walked by with a sigh said Johnny sit by my side

I’m gonna give you the best advice you've ever heard in your life

See that boy named Jimmy, yeah, he's a cutie

But oh no Johnny no no no no ah ah ow

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

You get picked on by another

Better go and run for cover yeah

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

You get picked on by another

Better go and run for cover

Johnny started high school at the front of the bus

Some boys yelled oh oh-oh man come sit with us

Johnny found a seat with a boy named Pete and felt it again

As he was trying to play pretend the feeling came rushing in

And he thought

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

You get picked on by another

Better go and run for cover yeah

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

You get picked on by another

Better go and run for cover

And I don't want to talk about the trap, I've dreamed big

Real big since I've been on daddy’s lap

Got my dreams by my side

Keep them in my pocket so that when I get the chance I can rip it out and rock it

It’s like my golden ticket, it’s the reason that I’m here

Everybody has a dream, but they're frozen by fear

We won't dance in the rain, we go and run for cover

All that is to blame is getting picked on by another

So we go and find someone that will love and support us

Says they adore us, maybe fought for us

Then, we forget about ambitions and decisions have changed

I think that I was only seven when oh

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

You get picked on by another

Better go and run for cover yeah

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

You get picked on by another

Better go and run for cover

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

Getting picked on by another

Better go and run for cover, nah no nah no

Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now

Getting picked on by another

Better go and run for cover, nah no nah no
