If there's going to be trouble tonight
You can meet me at the usual place
If there's going to be a fight tonight
Remember what you said to my face

Oh and darling
Too many words have been spoken
I don't want to get my heart broken
Like lovers do

No more songs tonight
I'm driving to the break of day
No more words tonight
We've got enough to throw away

Oh and darling
Now that we two are together
Don't dream this could go on forever
Like lovers do

I can hear you singing on my supernatural radio
I hear you singing on my supernatural radio

Oh and darling
Too many words have been spoken
I don't want to get my heart broken
Like lovers do

100 million watts
Yeah, I'm picking up a signal
Yeah, it's 100 million watts raw power
I can hear Jesus singing on my supernatural radio

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

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.
