American Angel - Teenage Runaway (1989 Doggie demo) lyrics

Pretty lady rolling down the road She sang the blues but had the rock 'n' roll on She picked me up fast but then she let me down slow But I'm thinking I knew that all the long Went to a bistro and I laid a couple back And who do you think walked through the door Slithered across the bar and I gazed into her eyes I think she knew that I'd be back for more Think of the romance It's a place you never ventured You pa**ed it by Now the ballgame is over And you never had a chance to try Teenage runaway Well, it's such a shame Always trying to give it away When nobody's paying Well, give it up! Back in school days even then you stole the show Didn't they eat it up when you were putting it out Teased more than your hair and the boys all felt ashamed Headed for the big time in the city of doubt, winning it out Fourteen going on forty your face now shows the strain Your vision of life painted a picture of hate Innocent impressions are going down in vain And as soon as I thought you'd quit you're back for more Think of the romance It's a place you never ventured You pa**ed it by Now the ballgame is over And you never had a chance to try Give me a try Teenage runaway It's a shame Always trying to give it away When nobody's paying Teenage runaway It's a shame Always trying to give it away When nobody's Well, give it up now Teenage runaway Well, it's such a shame You're always trying to give it all away When nobody's paying Teenage runaway (Oh, you're my teenage runaway) It's such a shame You're always trying to give it all away When there ain't nobody Tell me about my teenage runaway
