Swingin'
Lyrics
Well, she was standing by the highway
In her boots and silver spurs
Gonna hitchhike to the yellow moon
When a Cadillac stopped for her

Yeah, she went down swingin'
When a Cadillac stopped for her
Well, she was over twenty-one
And it didn't faze her none
She was 'cross the Georgia line
And she said, "Hey, nice to meet you
After that night in Vegas
She called her mother-in-law
In trouble with the law
Are you goin' my way?"
Like Tommy Dorsey
And she said, "I'm never goin' back"
Songwriter: Tom Petty
Like Benny Goodman
Like Glenn Miller
We went down swingin'
And said, "I need a little money
In her boots and silver spurs
I knew I could count on you"
Like Sonny Liston
Yeah, that's when it happened
Moonlight on the interstate
Yeah, she went down swingin'
She went down swingin'
She'd be so proud of me
Yeah, it had to come in time
Well, she was standing by the highway
Gonna hitchhike to the yellow moon
Yeah, she went down swingin'
She said, "At last I'm free"
Looked out the window feeling great
I wish ma could see me now
Yeah, we went down swingin'
Publisher: ADRIA K MUSIC
Yeah, she went down swingin'
And the hell that we went through
And she went down swingin'
Like Sammy Davis
Yes we did
The world caught fire that day
