Here's my story it's sad but true
It's about a girl the I once knew
She took my love then ran around
With every single guy in town
Hey, hey, oooooooohhhhhh
Hey, hey, oooooooohhhhhh
Hey, hey, oooooooohhhhhh
Hey, hey, oooooooohhhhhh
I guess I should have known it from the very start
This girl would leave me with a broken heart
Now listen people what I'm telling you
I keep away from Runaround Sue
Her amazing lips and the smile from her face
The touch of her hand and this girl's warm embrace
So if you don't want to cry like I do
Keep away from Runaround Sue.
She likes to travel around
She'll love you, then she'll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
She goes out with other guys
And the moral of the story from the guy who knows
I've been in love and my love still grows
Ask any fool that she ever knew
They'll say "Keep away from Runaround Sue"
