Текст пісні
I was a mixed up kid living in the circus
My daddy made me feel so damn nervous Everything seemed all right on the surface
If you only knew the pain that we went through
I was a bombshell blond with a pension for the hustle
When the night time came I worked my vagabond muscle
And the sultry whispers of the legendary chaos came to take me away
I said I wish I could stay, I can't be late cause
I'm just a million dollar runaway
Got nowhere to go, no place to stay
Tired of living a life of cliches
Cause I'm the million dollar runaway
I traveled down south and out west back to God's land
Prayed that the Lord would invoke some damn peace man
Made it to LA, I forgot my spray tan
Lusted for J but he left me high and dry
So I went to Malloys to sing with the band
I got there a little late and Barclay told me I couldn't jam
I said, hey man I'm leaving, better dream on babe
He said, if you decide to stay, lay your head where the trees can palm you and sway
Cause I'm just a million dollar runaway
Got nowhere to go, no place to stay
Tired of living a life of cliches
Cause I'm the million dollar runaway
Travelin׳ back down to New Jersey where my mama lives
Recalibrate me man, something has gotta give
Show me the way to the hall of fame
Forget it man, it's midday, they couldn't save your place
Forget it man, Hollywood couldn't save your face
Cause I'm just a million dollar runaway
Got nowhere to go, no place to stay
Tired of living a life of cliches
Cause I'm the million dollar runaway
I woke up one day man and I realized
The spirit of rock and roll had dried my eyes
No more living a life of cliches
Cause I'm the million dollar runaway
