Lyric Janie Runaway
It must have been my lucky Thursday
Your dad went on that spree
Before the crew could put out the fires
You hopped a bus for NYC
Down in Tampa the future looked desperate and dark
Now you re the wonderwaif of Gramercy Park
CHORUS:
Who makes the morning fabulous
Who says today s a fun day
Why do I feel like sailing again
Honey it s you Janie Runaway
Let s grab some takeout from Dean and Deluca
A hearty gulping wine
You be the showgirl and I ll be Sinatra
Way back in 59
Sweetness in heels - look at you - in long black gloves
Come to old blue eyes tell me - who do you love
CHORUS:
Who makes the traffic interesting
Rescues a dreary Sunday
Who makes me feel like painting again
Honey it s you - Janie Runaway
Let s plan a weekend alone together
Drive out to Binky s place
The sugar shack in Pennsylvania
Or would that be a federal case?
We ll take the Big Red - the Blazer - it s nice inside
And guess who s coming along for the ride
CHORUS:
Who has a friend named Melanie
Who s not afraid to try new things
Who gets to spend her birthday in Spain
Possibly you - Janie Runaway
Your dad went on that spree
Before the crew could put out the fires
You hopped a bus for NYC
Down in Tampa the future looked desperate and dark
Now you re the wonderwaif of Gramercy Park
CHORUS:
Who makes the morning fabulous
Who says today s a fun day
Why do I feel like sailing again
Honey it s you Janie Runaway
Let s grab some takeout from Dean and Deluca

You be the showgirl and I ll be Sinatra
Way back in 59
Sweetness in heels - look at you - in long black gloves
Come to old blue eyes tell me - who do you love

Rescues a dreary Sunday
Who makes me feel like painting again
Honey it s you - Janie Runaway
