about little boys running away from home
and their parents don’t see them no more

[david, singing]
but your mama told you never trust a stranger
and you don’t know which way to go

streets are dark and deserted
not a sound nor sign of life
how you long to hear your mother’s voice, oh
[temps, singing]
run

[judge, spoken]
otis williams, you’ve served six months in juvenile detention
am i going to see you in my courtroom again?
[otis, spoken]

i ain’t never going do nothing to make me lose my freedom again

[temps, singing]
runaway child, running wild
[otis, singing]
runaway child, running wild
[temps, singing]

[otis, spoken]
i was free, never looking back
that was all she wrote for the gang story
