No more
No more
I ain't going to do it no more
It used to be a big deal
But I ain't going to do it
If it ain't real

Big money
Big plans
You stand with a ticket in your hand
You don't play, you can't win
But I ain't going to do it
'Til I feel it again

When I see that sun go down
My mind begins to clear
Sure was a hard time
It sure was a hard time, my dear

No more
No more
I ain't going to do it no more
It used to be a big deal
But I ain't going to do it
If it ain't real

No, I ain't going to do it
If it ain't real

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.
