Billy ran away from his home
To find a way to live in peace,
His momma didn't give a damn about him,
And his poppa's on the run from the police
When Billy hit the city,
The city hit Billy,
And no-one needs you when you're down and out
Then one kind guy with the painted eyes
picked him up and bailed him out.

CHORUS

Under one roof
Sharing one room 
Nobody cared about them 
Under one roof 
Sharing one room 
Daring the world to part them.   

Billy found it hard to find a job 
To make some pay 
All day looking round, getting let down 
Always being turned away 
And Johnny was the only one, who didn't talk 
down to Billy from above 
And for the first time in his life 
Billy found out what it felt like to be loved.   

Under one roof 
Sharing one love 
Nobody cared about them 
Under one roof 
Sharing one love 
Daring the world to part them   

Somehow Billy's poppa found out all about the style of Billy's life 
And it didn't take long before he came round and he had a knife
He cut up Johnny, stole all his money and called him all the names that he could find 
Said he'd wait for Billy at the factory tomorrow 
And show them what they do to Billy's kind   

Under one roof 
Sharing one love 
Now the whole world knew about them 
Under one roof 
Sharing one love 
Daring the world to part them   

Johnny, said Billy, we can run away from the world no more 
I'm gonna face my daddy,gonna show the world who I'm living for 
And if I lose my job, if I lose my life 
You'll know one thing is true 
They can take away anything from me 
But they won't take me from you.   

And at 5.30 Billy's daddy waited at the factory for him to come 
And how he did degrade him, he cut him and he slayed him 
And spat on him in front of everyone 
As Billy lay dying, his poppa started crying 
The cops appeared and threw him in the can 
And all because the person who was the first to give him love 
had been a man.
