Well, the sirens wail on Route 66 My baby's gone with a suitcase quick Daddy said Stop! but I grabbed the keys Gotta find my girl 'fore the morning freeze Oh, I'm a midnight runaway! (Runaway!) Burnin' rubber on the highway No turnin' back from this rebel play Yeah, I'm a midnight runaway! The cop car's flashin' in my rearview light But I got the pedal pushed down tight This old Ford's hummin', wind in my hair Chasin' freedom through the desert air Oh, I'm a midnight runaway! (Runaway!) Burnin' rubber on the highway No turnin' back from this rebel play Yeah, I'm a midnight runaway! They say I'm wrong, but my heart beats true Nothin' left for me in that ghost-town zoo When the law's the walls that keep you small You gotta crash right through 'em, risk it all! You gotta smash those gates and stand tall! Oh, I'm a midnight runaway! (Runaway!) Burnin' rubber on the highway No turnin' back from this rebel play Yeah, I'm a midnight runaway! Ain't no home but the open road... Midnight runaway... Runaway... runaway...
