TOM PETTY lyrics : "Down South"

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
And a little more
