Lyrics

By tom petty and mike campbell

We got somethin', we both know it
We don't talk too much about it
Yeah it ain't no real big secret
But somehow, we get around it

It don't really matter to me baby
You believe what you want to believe
You don't have to live like a refugee

Somewhere, somehow
Somebody must have kicked you around some
Who knows why you wanna lay there and revel in your abandon

It don't make no difference to me, baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free
You see you don't have to live like a refugee

Baby, we ain't the first
I'm sure a lot of other lovers been burned
Right now this seems real to you
But it's one of those things you gotta feel to be true

Somewhere, somehow
Somebody must have kicked you around some
Who knows? maybe you were kidnapped
Tied up, taken away, and held for ransom

It don't really matter to me, baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free
