Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Album

You better watch what you say
You better watch what you do to me
Don't get carried away
Girl, if you can do better than me, go
Yeah go but remember

Good love is hard to find
Good love is hard to find
You got lucky babe
Yeah, you got lucky babe
When I found you-

You put a hand on my cheek
And then you turn your eyes away
If you don't feel complete
If I don't take you all of the way, go

Yeah go, but remember good love
Is hard to find
You got lucky babe
Yeah you got lucky
When I found you

Well I fought for you
I fought too hard
To do it all again babe
It's gone too far

You never needed me
You only wanted me around
It gets me down

(Chorus)
There's been a change,
Yeah there's been a change of heart
Said there's been a change
You push just a little too far
You make it just a little to hard
There's been a change of heart

I'll get over you
It won't take long
I've stood in yer gallery
Seen what's hangin' from the wall

You were the moon and sun,
Yer just a loaded gun now
It gets me down

(Chorus)

Whoa yeah, oh boy
Looks like we finally found the turning point
Oh me, oh my
Looks like it's time for me to kiss it goodbye
Yeah kiss it goodbye

(Chorus)

There was a little girl, I used to know her
I still think about her, time to time
There was a moment when I really loved her
Then one day the feeling just died

(Chorus)
We went staight into darkness
Out over the line
Yeah staight into darkness
Staight into night

I remember flying out to London
I remember the feeling at the time
Out the window of the 747
Man there was nothin', only black sky

(Chorus)

Oh give it up to me I need it
Girl, I know a good thing when I see it
Baby wrong or right I mean it
I don't believe the thrill is all gone
Real love is a man's salvation
The week ones fall the strong carry on

Straight into darkness
Out over the line
Yeah staight into darkness
Staight into night

Hey, I remember you back in '72
With your David Bowie hair and your platform shoes
You had a part-time job, selling fast food
But out on the street you was nobody's fool

(Chorus)
Baby way down deep it's the same old you
Way down deep you ain't hiding the truth
Just for a minute you had me confused
But baby way down deep it's the same old you

Well you can walk trough the city on fire
You can try and turn away fram truth
Living life like a young politician
Sure of yourself and bullet-proof
But baby

(Chorus)

We could buy a '62 Cadillac
Put a Fender amplifier in the back
Drive straight to the heart of America
Turn up to ten, let that sucker blast

(Chorus)

Honey don't walk out I'm too drunk to follow
You know you won't feel this way tomorrow
Well - maybe I'm a little rough around the edges
Inside a little hollow
I get faced with somethings sometimes
That are so hard to swallow - Hey!

(Chorus)
I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie on a Sunday morning
Yeah - with one foot in the grave
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel.

Well she picked me up in the morning
And she paid out my ticket
Yeah she screamed in the car
And threw me out in the thicket
Well - I never would've dreamed
That her heart was so wicked
Oh - but I keep coming back
'Cause it's so hard to kick it.
Hey, hey, hey

(Chorus)

Even before my father's fathers
They called us all rebels
Burned our cornfields
And left our cities level
I can still see the eyes
Of those blue bellied devils
When I'm walking round tonight
Through the concrete and metal.
Hey, hey, hey

Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Whatever you're looking for
Hey! don't come around here no more

I've given up, I've given up
I've given up on waiting any longer
I've given up, on this love stronger

I don't feel you any more
you darken my door
Whatever you're looking for
Hey! don't come around here no more

I've given up, I've given up
I've given up, you tangle my emotions
I've given up, honey please admit it is over

(Chorus)

Stop walking down my street
Who do you expect to met?
Whatever you're looking for
Hey! don't come around here no more

There's a southern accent, where I come from
The young 'uns call it country, the yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talking, but everything gets done
With a southern accent, where I come from

Now that drunk tank in Atlanta, is just a motel room to me
Think I might go work Orlando, if them orange groves don't freeze
Got my own way of working, but everything is run
With a southern accent, where I come from

For just a minute there I was dreaming
For just a minute it was all so real
For just a minute she was standing there, with me

There's a dream I keep having, where my momma comes to me
And kneels down over by the window, and says a prayer for me
Got my own way of praying, but everything one's begun
With a southern accent, where I come from

Got my own way of living, but everything is done
With a southern accent, where I come from

I wanna make it better baby
Listen, I want to make it good again
Yes I want to make it better girl

Yeah better for you, and me
Baby wait and see
I know it's been a long, long time
But it's gonna be alright
No you musn't let it drag you down

Honey, there's a lot a fools around
But anything I can do, honey
I'm gonna do it' for you

(Chorus)

Yeah good for and me
Baby please believe
That anything I can, baby I'm gonna do it for you
(Forget about me, forget these eyes)
(Forget about me, say goodbye)

These was too much rain, too much humility
Do you know why you did what you did to me?
Honey you're the jugde, there ain't no jury
And I'm just an innocent boy, used to bein' guilty

She prob'ly works in a restaurant
That's what her momma did
But I don't know if she ever really
Could put up with it
Or maybe she sings in a nightclub
'Cause sometimes she used to sing
But I don't know if it ever
Amounted to anything

But listen honey

(Chorus)
Wherever you are tonight
I wish you the best of everything, in the world
And I hope you found
Whatever you were looking for

Yeah and it's over before you know it
It all goes by so fast
Yeah, the bad nights last forever
And the good nights don't ever seem to last
And man, we never had the real thing
But sometimes we used to kiss
Back when we didn't understand
What we were caught up in

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

So you want to be a rock 'n' roll star?
Then listen now, hear what I say
Just get an electric guitar
Then take some time
And learn how to play

And with your hair swung right,
And your pants too tight
It's gonna be alright

Well then it's time to go downtown
Where the agent man won't let you down
And sell your soul to some company
Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware
And in a week or two if you make the charts
The girl'll tear you apart

The price you paid for your riches and fame,
Was it all a strange game?
You're a little insane
The money that came, and the public acclaim,
Don't forget what you are,
You're a rock 'n' roll star

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

You complain and criticize
I feel like nothing in your eyes
It makes me feel like givin' up
Because my best just ain't good enough
Girl I want to provide for you
And do all the the things you want me to

But oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Said darlin', darlin', darlin', darlin'
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down

The sacrifices I will make
I'm ready to give as well as take
Something I need is your respect
Something I can't take is your neglect
And more than anything I need your love
It sure isn't easy to rise above

And oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Said darlin', darlin', darlin', don't hurt me
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down

And you complain and criticize
I feel like nothing in your eyes
It makes me feel like givin' up
Because my best just ain't good enough
Girl I want to provide for you
Do all the things that you want me to

But oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Said darlin', darlin', darlin', I'm beggin' you
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Said darlin', darlin', darlin', darlin'
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Darlin', darlin', stop it, darlin'
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down

You got me in a corner
You got me against the wall
I got nowhere to go
I got nowhere to fall

Take back your insurance
Baby nothin's guaranteed
Take back your acid rain
Let your T.V. bleed

(Chorus)
You're jammin' me, you're jammin' me,
Quit jammin' me
Baby you can keep me painted in a corner
You can walk away, but it's not over

Take back your angry slander
Take back your pension plan
Take bakc your ups and downs of your life
In raisin-land

Take back Vanessa Redgrave
Take back Joe Piscopo
Take back Eddie Murphy
Give 'em all some place to go

(Chorus)

Take back your iranian torture
And the apple in young Steve's eye
Yeah take back your losing streak
Check your front wheel drive

Take back Pasadena
Take back El Salvador
Take back that country club
They're tryin' to build outside my door

She wore faded jeans and soft black leather
She had eyes so blue they looked like weather
When she needed me I wasn't around
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out

There were times apart, there were times together
I was pledged to her for worse or better
When it mattered most I let her down
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out

It'll all work out eventually
Better off with him than here with me

It'll all work out eventually
Maybe better off with him than here with me

Now the wind is high and the rain is heavy
And the water's rising in the levee
Still I think of her when the sun goes down
It never goes away, but it all works out

Listen little baby one these days
Your pretty head's gonna turn my way
Honey, oh baby just you wait
One of these nights you're gonna call my name

(Chorus)
Oh yeah, one of these days
Girl you better believe, honey wait and see
Yeah, You better believe
You're gonna think about me

Your boyfriend's gotta big red car
Got a compact disc, got a VSR
I can't do no disco dance
But I can sure love you baby if you give me a chance

(Chorus)

I said oh pretty baby, is it something I've said?
Tell me why little baby,
I said why must you play with my head?

Listen little girl I said one of these days
Your pretty head's gonna turn my way
One of these days, I know I'm right
You're gonna look for me in the middle of the night

(Chorus)

If he don't wanna talk
Leave him alone
If he don't wanna talk
Leave him alone
He's a self-made man, he did it on own

Now some folks say there's a dangerous side
Some folks say he's got a dangerous side
He's a self-made man, he knows about pride

(Chorus)
So help me baby, look what love can do
It scares me baby, does it scare you do?

Some folks say it was a women he knew
Some folks say it was a women he knew
He's a self-made man, he knows how to lose

(Chorus)
