Taking my time
I'm slowing down a little bit
Taking my time
Slowing down a little bit

Yeah when I was a young boy
Honey, my fuse was lit
Yeah when I was a young boy
Honey, my fuse was lit

Losing my way
To something stronger than me
Losing my way
To something stronger than me

Scares me to think about
What's on the road after me
Yeah it scares me to think about
What's on the road after me

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.
