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 and 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 
Drive 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
