Down South lyrics
Song information
Artist: Tom Petty Album: Highway Companion
Lyrics
Headed back down south Gonna see my daddy's mistress Gonna buy back her forgivness 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 clemens 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 Spirits cross the dead fields Mosquitoes hit the windshield All document 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
