Janie Runaway Lyrics - Steely Dan

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 

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, 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

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 

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 

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
