Lyrics
Words and music by tom petty
She grew up in a indiana town Had a good lookin' mama who never was around But she grew up tall and she grew up right With them indiana boys on an indiana night
Well she moved down here at the age of eighteen She blew the boys away; was more than they'd seen I was introduced and we both started groovin' She said, "i dig you, baby, but I got to keep movin' - on Keep movin' on."
Chorus Last dance with mary jane, one more time to kill the pain I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again
Well I don't know but I've been told, you never slow down, you never grow old I'm tired of screwin' up, tired of goin' down Tired of myself, tired of this town Oh my, my, oh hell yes - honey put on that party dress Buy me a drink, sing me a song Take me as I come . cause I can't stay long
(Repeat chorus)
There's pigeons down on market square She's standing in her underwear Lookin' down from a hotel room Nightfall will be coming soon Oh my, my, oh hell yes, you got to put on that party dress It was too cold to cry, when I woke up alone I hit my last number, I walked to the road
