[Verse 1: Pete Shelley]
I've had a fight by the phone
I just wanted to be alone

[Chorus 1: Steve Garvey]
I've had to run away from home
I've been kicked out, and I'm all alone
I've got nowhere else to go
Can you tell me who wants to know?

[Verse 2: Pete Shelley]
What a sorrowed state to be in
I suppose I'll never win
I've been sleepin' in the park
It's so cold, and it's so dark

[Chorus 1: Steve Garvey]
I've had to run away from home
I've been kicked out, and I'm all alone
I've got nowhere else to go
Can you tell me who wants to know?

[Verse 3: Pete Shelley]
I suppose I'll have to go back
I do it every time
[Chorus 2: Steve Garvey]
I've had to run away from home
I've been kicked out, I was all alone
I've got nowhere else to go
Can you tell me who wanted to know?

[Interlude]

[Chorus 2: Steve Garvey]
I've had to run away from home
I've been kicked out, I was all alone
I've got nowhere else to go
Can you tell me who wanted to know?
