Johnny Run Away

Song: Johnny Run Away

Artist: Tones and I

Johnny was a young boy,

He liked playing at the park

And Johnny said,

"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 no, no, Johnny, no, no, no, ah, ah, oh"

Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now

Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now

You'll 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'll 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 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 feelings came rushing in

And he thought

Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now

Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now

You'll 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'll get picked on by another

Better go and run for cover

And I don't wanna 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,

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 were 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'll 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'll 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
