"THE DAY TOM PETTY DIED"

I was clad in plaid and somewhat taken aback by the beauty that walked up to me. She said is that seat taken? In a blue eyed smile way back when I believed in dreams. Cause never then would I suffer no I’d find a new lover chasing chicks around the world. But she was a blue Jean baby, a real rock n roll lady, a bonafide American Girl.

With no time to linger I was wrapped around her finger certified

“caught up in it all” That’s what I told em the girl from 1 county over, never had that hard I’d fall And I would say to her babe I won’t cause you no pain and this girl I swear on my life

She said nothing you could do will ever hurt me boy like the day Tom Petty died Like the day Tom Petty Died

With her heart on her wrists she got tired of my slips She packed up and went on her way Too many strings of bad luck it was jus too much she couldn’t take it no another day But my story went on I started singing new songs meet me a fine girl that treated me right But sometimes boy I get caught up thinkin bout the day Tom Petty Died

And so years they went by we moved on with our lives but sometimes I’m caught in those days Jus a boy and a girl wrapped up in rock n roll songs makin magic ‘for we parted ways But now our planets on fire you know people are dying but one thing crosses my mind A lot of things changed
