A Mind With A Heart Of Its Own

Tom Petty

I remember her standing in the tall grass and cattails 
Away from the windows at the end of the day 
watching the men from the landing in the 
tall hats and coat-tails 
She'd never look different, 
But something would change 

A mind with a heart of its own 
Yeah a mind with a heart of its own 

Well the man out to end us had a hurricane business 
He'd raise them from babies all by himself 
but his teen-age accountant had become surrounded 
he drank up the party and everyone left 

A mind with a heart of its own 
Yes a mind with a heart of its own 

Well I been to Brooker and I been to Micanopy 
I been to St. Louis too, I been all around the world 
I've been over to your house 
And you've been over sometimes to my house 
I've slept in your tree house 
my middle name is Earl 

A mind with a heart of its own 
A mind with a heart of its own 
Yeah a mind with a heart of its own
