Here’s my story, sad but true
It’s about a girl that I once knew
She took my love then ran around
With every single guy in town
Yeah, I should have known it from the very start
This girl will leave me with a broken heart
A-listen people what I’m telling you
A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue
Yeah…I miss her lips and the smile on her face
The touch of her hand and this girl’s warm embrace
So if you don’t wanna cry like I do
A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue
Whoa…
Ah, she likes to travel around
Yeah, She’ll love you and she’ll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
Sue goes out with other guys
Here’s the moral and the story from the guy who knows
I fell in love and my love still grows
Ask any fool that she ever knew, they’ll say
A-Keep away from-a Runaround Sue
Yeah, Keep away from this girl
I don’t know what she’ll do
Keep away from Sue
She likes to travel around
Yeah…She’ll love you and she’ll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
She goes out with other guys
Here’s the moral and the story from the guy who knows
I fell in love and my love still grows
Ask any fool that she ever knew, they’ll say
Keep away from-a Runaround Sue
Yeah, Stay away from that girl
Don’t you know what she’ll do now
Whoa…
