Tom Petty - You're Gonna Get It! Lyrics






When The Time Comes

(One, two, one, two, three, four)

This might sound strange, might seem dumb
Depends on the side that you take it in from
Depends on the time, depends on the day
Depends on a lot of things, who can say

I just want to let you know that I will stand by you
Through whatever might come, wherever you run
Will you stand by me when the time comes?

Baby, do you understand, am I making this clear?
Are you tuning me out 'cause I'm coming off weird?
Well, I don't care, that's all right
It's okay, I don't mind

I just want to let you know that I will stand by you
Through whatever might come, wherever you run
Will you stand by me when the time comes?

This ain't the right time to say what's on my mind
I know
But I look in your eyes
And there is no real life at all
Baby, hold on

And someday soon you'll come around
You know where I can be found
When you heart feels right, seek me out
We can talk more then, babe, but right now

I just want to let you know that I will stand by you
Through whatever might come, wherever you run
Will you stand by me when the time comes?

"One more?"
"That one felt good"

Youre Gonna Get It

I don't want you no more
Ain't gonna give any more
Than you give to me
I don't want you
It's too hard
Can't try any harder
Than you try for me

You're gonna get it, baby
I should've quit it, baby
But you look so good
Yeah, you do, you do, you do, you do, you do
Kept thinkin' that something might change
But I was just a fool

Go
Go to somebody else
Like you do to me
I don't want you
Can't crawl
I can't crawl any further
You never crawled for me

You're gonna get it, baby
Yeah, I should've quit it, baby
But you look so good
Yeah, you do, you do, don't you? You do
I kept thinkin' that something gon' change
But I was just a fool

You're gonna get it, baby
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it, baby
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it, baby
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it, baby
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it

Hurt

I walked to the window turned out the light
Looked at the city went back through the night
Yeah I stood in the darkness stood all alone
Thank God for California thank God I'm going home

That's right you hurt me baby hurt me good
Hurt me like no one else ever could
Cut down the middle face down in the dirt
And we both know it's too late to save it
Bet ya feel proud about it baby
You taught me how to hurt

DC 10, 10:45
Halfway to L.A. red in the eyes
Might be the devil, might just be his friend
It don't make no difference, you ain't gettin' me again

That's right you hurt me baby hurt me good
Hurt me like no one else ever could
Cut down the middle face down in the dirt
And we both know it's too late to save it
Bet ya feel proud about it baby
You taught me how to hurt

Magnolia

From a table across the room
She was signaling me with her eyes
I walked over to be introduced
I said hello, she just smiled
And said I know a place not too far from here
We could get away for awhile
Yeah, that's when she kissed me and told me her name
I never did tell her mine

Magnolia
I remember the smell of the wind through the suite
Magnolia
And I know that she's out there somewhere in the world
She's forgotten me but I remember her
Magnolia

Well her lips were as warm
As that wet southern night
Her eyes were as black as the sky
And I wondered aloud
Just what I done right
As I lay there with her by my side
T hen she took hold of my hand
As she looked up at me
And said now I must tell you good-bye
And there in the moonlight
As I watched her leave
I felt a chill down inside

Magnolia
I remember the smell of the wind through the s uite
Magnolia
And I know that she's out there somewhere in the world
She's forgotten me but I remember her
Magnolia

Too Much Aint Enough

Looks like you got a little more to lose
Now a little more at stake
I see you've had a hard time
Livin' with the change
You've got me up in line
Now tryin' to call your bluff
But you just won't be satisfied
Too much ain't enough
It ain't enough, it ain't enough

You're standing by the telephone
Waitin' for the word
And ever since that bathroom scene
There's been a slight concern
I'm trying' to make this easy baby
You seem to like things rough
You just can't be satisfied
Too much ain't enough

It ain't enough, it ain't enough.
Too much baby ain't enough no way
Too much baby ain't enough no way
Come on baby I'm down on my knees
Guess some little girls just can't be pleased

Little miss queen of hear ts you're a strange thing
Why you want to stay so vague
I'm wanderin' through this mess you made
To see what I can save
I'm livin' on the line now
Tryin' to call your bluff
But you just won't be satisfied
Too much ain't enough.

I Need To Know

(Tom Petty)

Well talk on the street
Says you might go solo
A good friend of mine
saw you leavin' by your back door

(Chorus)
I need to know, I need to know
If you think you're gotta leave
Then you better say so
I need to know, I need to know
Cause I don't know how long I can hold on
If you're making me wait, if you're leadin' me on
I need to know

Who would've thought that
You'd fall for his line
All of a sudden
It's me on the outside

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

I need to know
I need to know
Baby, I need to know

Listen To Her Heart

You think you're gonna take her away
With your money and your cocaine
You keep thinkin' that her mind is gonna change
But I know everything is okay

She's gonna listen to her heart
It's gonna tell her what to do
She might need a lot of loving
But she don't need you

You want me to think that I'm being used
You want her to think it's over
You can't see it doesn't matter what you do
Buddy, you don't even know her

She's gonna listen to her heart
It's gonna tell her what to do
She might need a lot of loving
But she don't need you

And you just can't creep up behind her
And you can't understand that she's my girl
She's my girl, aah

Yeah, she's gonna listen to her heart
It's gonna tell her what to do
She might need a lot of loving
But she don't need you, ooh

No Second Thoughts

She threw down her golden band
Crushed it with her feet into the sand
Took her silent partner by the hand
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah

Somewhere near the edge of town
She said she was torn and turned around
"Can you help me cast this evil down?"
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah

We'll drive for the line
Now there's nothing to be lost
You and I will cross over
With no second thoughts

Yeah

Yeah We'll drive for the line
Now there's nothing to be lost
You and I will cross over
With no second thoughts

Dreams fade hope dies hard
Cups her eyes and looks out at the stars
Says "I feel we've traveled very far"
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah

Restless

I don't belong to no one
I don't belong at all
Got my face in the corner
Got my back to the wall

And pretty baby I'm restless, restless
Restless through and through
I'm restless, restless
You look restless too

I'm a hair trigger lover
And I can't face up to nothing
I'm impatient with the wind
But I'm waitin' here for somethin'

And pretty baby I'm restless, restless
Restless through and through
I'm restless, restless
You look restless too

Restless sleep, twisted dreams
Moving targets, silent screams
Restless city, restless street
Restless you, restless me

I'm a face at the window
I'm a black satin sheet
And I can't stay warm
I stay out in the street

And pretty baby I'm restless, restless
Restless through and through
I'm restless, restless
You look restless too

Babys A Rock N Roller

My baby is a are rock 'n' roller
My baby is a rock 'n' roller
Yeah and that's all
She ever wants to be

So why you tryin' to come on with this sophistication
She don't want to know about your education
Man she don't care about the United Nations
My baby's gone on a rhythm sensation
That's all she ever wants to be

My baby is a rock 'n' roller
My baby is a rock 'n' roller

She can't take any stupid friends of yours
She ain't gonna go through all of that no more
She don't want to be no dental assistant
Man she got the rhythm and she can't resist it
And that's all that she ever wants to be
My baby is a rock 'n' roller
My baby is a rock 'n' roller
