Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy '94 (Acoustic )

Songwriters: Somerville, James;Steinbachek, Lawrence;Bronski, Steven
You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face
Mother will never understand
Why you had to leave
But the answers you seek
Will never be found at home
The love that you need
Will never be found at home
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Pushed around and kicked around
Always a lonely boy
You were the one
That theyd talk about around town
As they put you down
And as hard as they would try
Theyd hurt to make you cry
But you never cried to them
Just to your soul
No you never cried to them
Just to your soul
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Cry , boy, cry...
You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

RIP Steve Bronski (1960 - 2021) and Larry Steinbachek (1960 - 2016). Those of us who grew up with your music treasure it always.

Is this actually Bronski Beat singing? or is this a acoustic cover version?

[@antoniourru2975]

The lead vocal is Steve Bronski

[@kowonu]

It is Bronski Beat, but with Jon Jon Foster on vocals rather than Jimmy Sommerville, who sang the original version

[@antoniourru2975]

The lead vocal is Steve Bronski

This is a song of a closet gay that's not excepted and has to leave to find himself.
