She's a lonely girl
Lost in the world
Got love in her eyes for me
She’s a sweet young thing
Brings me dreams
In a box she made for me
Lonesome sundown, this is gonna be hard
It's a lonesome sundown, this is gonna be hard
I know so don't let go, this is gonna be hard
I’ll never let you down
This love I've found
It means too much to me
And I stand accused
Outside the law
But you are all I need
Lonesome sundown, this is gonna be hard
Yeah a lonesome sundown, this is gonna be hard
I know
So don't let go this is gonna be hard
Redemption comes
To those who wait
Forgiveness is the key
And I wish you love
And I wish you hope
Please believe in me
And it's a lonesome sundown, this is gonna be hard
Yeah a lonesome sundown, this is gonna be hard
I know
So don't let go this is gonna be hard

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers – an L.A.-based gang of sharp-dressed garage-rock refugees from Gainsville, Florida – released their debut LP in November 1976, featuring two tracks which are now part of their long list of hits, “Breakdown” and “American Girl.”

Since that first LP in ‘76, the band’s style has epitomized and largely defined the American “heartland rock” movement – a vintage-guitar twang, hard lyric truth, and searing vocal attitude.

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers have been nominated for 17 Grammy awards and sold more than 80 million records worldwide, making them one of the world’s best-selling bands of all-time.
