Tom Petty

Runnin' Down a Dream

It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down

I had the radio on, I was driving

Trees went by, me and Del were singin'

"Little runaway," I was flyin'

Yeah, runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

Runnin' down a dream

I felt so good, like anything was possible

Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes

The last three days, and the rain was unstoppable

It was always cold, no sunshine

Yeah, runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

Runnin' down a dream

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

I rolled on, the sky grew dark

I put the pedal down to make some time

There's something good waitin' down this road

I'm pickin' up whatever is mine

I'm runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

Runnin' down a dream

Yeah, I'm runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, I'm goin' wherever it leads

I'm runnin' down a dream

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Hello, CD listeners

We've come to the point in this album where those listening on cassette, or records

Will have to stand up, or sit down and turn over the record or tape

In fairness to those listeners, we'll now take a few seconds before we begin side two

Thank you

Here's side two
