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 

Ah, I should have known it from the very start 

This girl will leave me with a broken heart 

Now listen people what I'm telling you 

A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue 

I miss her lips and the smile on her face 

The touch of her hair and this girl's warm embrace 

So if you don't wanna cry like I do 

A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue 

Ah, she likes to travel around 

She'll love you but 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 

Keep away from-a Runaround Sue 

She likes to travel around 

She'll love you but 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 

Keep away from-a Runaround Sue
