‘Runaway’ was a bonus song on the 2007 reissue of Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3 .
The song was originally a 1961 hit for Del Shannon, who co-wrote it with Max Crook. Shannon’s version topped the US Billboard Hot 100 for four consecutive weeks.
Lead vocals on The Traveling Wilburys’ version were by Jeff Lynne, who also played the clavioline solo.
We actually also did, which was very interesting, was ‘Runaway’, Del Shannon’s tune. It was like just a tribute, really. It was just great to see Bob Dylan playing ‘Runaway’ when we’re just sitting there playing, you know? I just thought Del would have approved, ’cause I loved Del. He was a great guy.
‘Runaway’ first appeared on the CD single of the Wilburys’ ‘She’s My Baby’, released on 5 November 1990. At the time it was their first cover version.
The song was reportedly considered for the band’s second album, but was not included until it became the final track on the 2007 reissue.

The traveling wilburys: who sings what.
The Traveling Wilburys: Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison & George Harrison
I have been asked a couple of times already who sings exactly what on the two volumes that The Traveling Wilburys were to issue during their stint together. Some (younger) people just aren’t accustomed to the singers’ voices on their own, and that is aggravated by the fact Petty sounds just like Dylan more than sporadically (“End Of The Line”, “7 Deadly Sins”). That is the reason why I decided to put this list together.
To begin with, their pseudonyms for each album:
The Traveling Wilburys Vol 1
Nelson Wilbury – George Harrison Otis Wilbury – Jeff Lynne Lefty Wilbury – Roy Orbison Charlie T. Wilbury Jr. – Tom Petty Lucky Wilbury – Bob Dylan
The Traveling Wilburys Vol 3
Spike Wilbury – George Harrison Clayton Wilbury – Jeff Lynne Muddy Wilbury – Tom Petty Boo Wilbury – Bob Dylan
Now, who sings what:
Handle With Care – Harrison Dirty World – Dylan Rattled – Lynne Last Night – Petty Not Alone Anymore – Orbison Congratulations – Dylan Heading for the Light – Harrison Margarita – Dylan Tweeter and the Monkey Man- Dylan End of the Line- Petty (with Harrison, Lynne and Orbison singing a verse or two each) The Traveling Wilburys Vol 3
She’s My Baby – Petty (Dylan and Harrison also sing several parts) Inside Out – Dylan (with parts by Petty and Harrison) She Belongs To Me – Dylan The Devil’s Been Busy – Petty with Dylan and Lynne 7 Deadly Sins – Dylan Poor House – Petty Where Were You Last Night? – Dylan, Harrison Cool Dry Place – Petty New Blue Moon – Lynne, Harrison and Petty harmonizing together You Took My Breath Away – Petty, Lynne Wilbury Twist – Petty
There, I hope that helped!

Runaway song analysis. The protagonist is walking in the rain and thinking about all the things he used to do with his partner when they were young. He is sad and wondering why she ran away and where she will stay. He calls her his little runaway and wishes she were there to end his misery. Add this song to my favorites.
