The song was notably covered by Bonnie Raitt in 1977. It is #466 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time from 2004.
Lyrics:
Runaway
As I walk along, I wonder
A what went wrong whit our love
A love that was so strong
And as I still walk on
I think of the thing's we've done
Together, while our hearts were young
I'm a walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain
A wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder
Why a why why why why why
she ran away
And I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway
My run run run run runaway
I'm a walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain
A wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder
Why a why why why why why
she ran awayway
and I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway
A run run run run
runaway
And I wonder a where she will stay
My little runaway
a run run run run runaway
Yeah, good job man.
