Gary Alexander - Thank God For Tom Petty

I bet I spent a couple thousand dollars on gas that summer
Every part time lawn cutting paycheck went into that tank
You could hear them mud tires burning backroads like thunder
Her daddy coulda said no but he said yes anyway
Thank god he let pick her up to run laps around that town
That ninety seven z seven one radio only played one thing
The twelve greatest hits of the heartbreakers
Never once did I turn it down
Thank god she let me
Thank god for that chevy

Anything I could try to get her to slide over next to me
Never back down you don't know how it feels running down a dream
She'd sing every word to free falling
Had me falling all over her
Thank god she let me
Thank god for that chevy
Thank god for tom petty

Ain't it funny how time flies by when you can't press pause
September one she packed her bags for Raliegh
She said four years ain't all that long
With all these songs
And you can always call
And come to see me
Thank god she let me

Anything I could try to get her to slide over next to me
Never back down you don't know how it feels running down a dream
She'd sing every word to free fallin
Had me fallin' all over her
Thank god She let me
Thank god for that chevy

Thank god for tom petty and two I do's
For worse or better
I prayed to god he'd let me keep that american girl forever

Anything I could try to get her to slide over next to me
Never back down you don't know how it feels running down a dream
She'd sing every word to free falling
Had me falling all over her
Thank god she let me
Thank god for that chevy
Thank god for tom petty
