A One Story Town

By Tom Petty 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
