Say Hello To Gainesville
Orange juice with natural vitamin C
Growin' down in Florida on the sunshine tree
Say hello to Gainesville if you will for me
Underneath the sunshine tree
"Runnin' Down a Dream", well, that's a damn good tune
Who would thought Tom Petty'd leave us all so soon?
I would say Free Fallin's like a lifelong thing
Who knows what the next day brings?
Lookin' at a photograph you snapped of me
Back when it was taken, I was 53
That's the year Tom Petty played the Super Bowl
Super Bowl meets rock 'n' roll
Make yourself feel happy in an Old School way
Lose your troubles driving down the old King's Bay
Lot of backroad motels look just like they did
To a 1960s kid
Everything we're singing's from a bygone time
Listen to the guitars and the loose half rhymes
Photographs of Tom are in the past tense, y'all
Rickenbacker smiles and all
Lookin' at a photograph you snapped of me
Back when it was taken, I was 53
That's the year Tom Petty played the Super Bowl
Super Bowl meets rock 'n' roll
Say hello to Gainesville if you will for me
And whatever's growing on the sunshine tree
Talkin' 'bout some juice with natural vitamin C
Growin' on the sunshine tree
Growin' on the sunshine tree
Say hello to Gainesville if you will for me
Say hello to Gainesville
Growin' down in Florida on the sunshine tree
Say hello to Gainesville if you will for me
Underneath the sunshine tree
"Runnin' Down a Dream", well, that's a damn good tune
Who would thought Tom Petty'd leave us all so soon?
I would say Free Fallin's like a lifelong thing
Who knows what the next day brings?
Lookin' at a photograph you snapped of me
Back when it was taken, I was 53
That's the year Tom Petty played the Super Bowl
Super Bowl meets rock 'n' roll
Make yourself feel happy in an Old School way
Lose your troubles driving down the old King's Bay
Lot of backroad motels look just like they did
To a 1960s kid
Everything we're singing's from a bygone time
Listen to the guitars and the loose half rhymes
Photographs of Tom are in the past tense, y'all
Rickenbacker smiles and all
Lookin' at a photograph you snapped of me
Back when it was taken, I was 53
That's the year Tom Petty played the Super Bowl
Super Bowl meets rock 'n' roll
Say hello to Gainesville if you will for me
And whatever's growing on the sunshine tree
Talkin' 'bout some juice with natural vitamin C
Growin' on the sunshine tree
Growin' on the sunshine tree
Say hello to Gainesville if you will for me
Say hello to Gainesville
