TOM PETTYI’ll stand my ground and I won’t back down.
TOM PETTYI’m tired of screwing up. I’m tired of being down. I’m tired of myself. I’m tired of bein’ down.
TOM PETTYExcuse me if I have some place in my mind where I go time to time.

TOM PETTYLord, please watch over all these lost children born to chase the hurricane.
TOM PETTYI wouldn’t want to get stuck being an oldie-goldie group, but I don’t mind. I think all the trouble you go through these days to go to one of these concerts, I think I owe them a bit of what they came to hear.

TOM PETTYGo after what you really love and find a way to make that work for you, and then you’ll be a happy person.
