lyrics

Written by Tom Petty
Down South (Tom Petty)


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

So if I come to your door Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have And a little more

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 Clements Wear seersucker and white linens

So if I come to your door Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have And a little more

Spanish moss down south Find the heroes of my childhood
Who now can do me no good Carve their names in dogwood
Chase a ghost down south Spirits cross the dead fields
Mosquitoes hit the windshield All documents remain sealed


So if I come to your door Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have And a little more
I'll give you all I have And a little more
