Subject: What is this songs title
Written By: C on 08/05/02 at 08:48 a.m.
Been trying find out more about a song my friend would like to have. She thinks it from the late 60's early 70's. Name may be "Run Joey Run". Some of the lyrics are below. If anyone has any idea about the singer or the remaining lyrics p-leeese let me know.
The song is about the girls father being abusive and the boy in the song is trying to get her away from her father.? We think, he may be just upset about relationship with the boy.
Boys name is Joey girls name is Julie
The lyrics are toward the end of the song:
Julie called up said don't come over Dad's got a gun
So I got in my car and drove like mad till I reached Julies place
She ran to me with two black eyes and bruises on her face
Suddenly a shot rang out and I saw Julie falling
I ran to her I held her close
When I looked down my hands were red And here's the last words Julie said
And the girl sings
"Daddy please don't it wasn't his fault he means so much to me. Daddy please don't we're going to get married........(this seems to be the point where she dies as the music changes and fades
(Music changes to a sad tone)
Chorus repeats "Run Joey Run Joey Run Joey Run"

Sounds like "Run Joey Run" by David Geddes.
