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
