On the streets where you live girls talk about their social lives

There made of lipstick, plastic and paint

And you don't see it in their eyes

All your life, all you ask "When's your daddy gonna talk to you?"

But you were living in an other world

Tryin' to get a message through



No-one heard a single word you said

We should have seen it in your eyes

What was going round your head



Ooh, she's a little runaway

Daddy's girl at last

All the things she couldn't say

Ooh she's a little runaway



Dim the light every night, guaranteed to blow your mind

I see you out on the streets

Calling for a wild time

So you sit home alone 'cause there's nothing else that you can do

There's only pictures hung in the shadows

Left there to look at you



You know she lights the lights at night on neon Broadway signs

She don't really mind

It's only love she hopes to find



Ooh, she's a little runaway

Daddy's girl at last

All the things she couldn't say

Ooh she's a little runaway



No-one heard a single word you said

We should have seen it in your eyes

What was going round your head



Ooh, she's a little runaway

Daddy's girl at last

All the things she couldn't say

Ooh she's a little runaway

Daddy's girl at last

Now she works the night away
