Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Down South

Tekst piosenki

[Verse 1]
Headed back down south
Gonna see my daddy’s mistress
Gonna buy back her forgiveness
Pay off every witness
One more time down south
Sell the family headstones
Drag a bag of dry bones
Make good on my back loans

[Chorus]
So if i come to your door
Let me sleep on your floor
I’ll give you all i have
And a little more

[Verse 2]
Sleep late down south
Look up my former mentors
Live off yankee winters
Be a landlord and a renter
Create myself down south
Impress all the women
Pretend i’m samuel clemens
Wear seersucker and white linens

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Spanish moss down south
Spirits cross the dead fields
Mosquitoes hit the windshield
All document remain sealed

[Chorus]

[Outro]
I’ll give you all i have
And a little more
