A One Story Town Songtext
von Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

I′m for standin' up, I′m for breakin' free
I don't want fate handed down to me --
Yeah, I′m for movin′ on, try another town
Time ain't changin′ nothin', take a look around


Chorus
Oh, I′m lost in a one story town
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around
It′s a one story town --

She was only seventeen

But I held her to her word
Had to push her luck
Thought she couldn't burn

No, it didn't hurt me
When she had to leave
She had a far away feeling
Wasn′t part of me

(Repeat Chorus)
