Run Joey Run Lyrics - Singles - David Geddes

Daddy please don't 

It wasn't his fault 

He means so much to me 

Daddy please don't 

We're gonna get married 

Just you wait and see 

Every night, the same old dream 

I hate to close my eyes 

I can't erase the memory 

The sound of Julie's cry 

She called me up, late that night 

She said, "Joe, don't come over, 

But Dad and I just had a fight 

And he stormed out the door! 

I've never seen him act this way, 

My God, he's goin' crazy 

He said he's gonna make you pay 

For what we done-- he's got a GUN! 

So run, Joey run, Joey run!" 

Daddy please don't 

It wasn't his fault 

He means so much to me 

Daddy please don't 

We're gonna get married 

Just you wait and see 

Got in my car, and I drove like mad 

'Til I reached Julie's place 

She ran to me, with tear-filled eyes 

And bruises on her face! 

All at once I saw him there, 

Sneaking up behind me (Woman's voice: Watch out!) 

Then Julie yelled, "He's got a gun!" 

And she stepped in front of me 

Suddenly, a shot rang out 

And I saw Julie falling! 

I ran to her, I held her close 

When I looked down, my hands were red 

And here's the last words Julie said... 

Daddy please don't 

It wasn't his fault 

He means so much to me 

Daddy please don't 

We're gonna get married...... 

Run, Joey run, Joey run, Joey run, Joey ruuuuuunn!!!
