Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (alternately styled Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers) is an American rock band from Gainesville, Florida. Formed in 1976, the band originally comprised Tom Petty (lead singer, guitar), Mike Campbell (lead guitarist), Ron Blair (bass guitar), Stan Lynch (drums), and Benmont Tench (keyboards). The band largely maintained this lineup, with a few exceptions. In 1981, Blair, tired of the touring lifestyle, left the band. His replacement, Howie Epstein, stayed with the band for the next two decades. In 1991, Scott Thurston joined the band as a multi-instrumentalist—mostly on rhythm guitar and second keyboards. Blair returned to the Heartbreakers in 2002, the year before Epstein's death. In 1994, Steve Ferrone replaced Lynch on drums. Th… more »

I live on the west side, by the county reservoir
And she lives down on depot street, behind the city hall
Behind the city hall

Her father's name is Macintosh, her mother's name is Pearl
And they live down on depot street, she's my little girl
She's my little girl

Down on depot street, I'm gonna see my baby
Depot street, I'm gonna see my girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Depot street, behind the city hall

We ain't got no money, we don't have no car
We stay down on depot street, just dancin' in the park
Dancin' in the park

And her sister doesn't like me, but I don't really care
I know the only reason is she wants me for herself
She wants me for herself

Down on depot street, I'm gonna see my baby
Depot street, I'm gonna see my little girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Depot street, behind the city hall

She's my baby, she's my girl

And we ain't been to college, we both quit high school
There was way too many people there makin' way too many rules
Makin' way too many rules

So we got no education, but we don't care at all
'Cause it don't mean much on depot street, behind the city hall
Behind the city hall

Down on depot street, I'm gonna see my baby
Depot street, I'm gonna see my girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Depot street, behind the city hall

Down on depot street, I'm gonna see my baby
Depot street, I'm gonna see my girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Depot street, behind the city hall
