I don't want you no more
Ain't going to give any more than you give to me
I don't want you, it's too hard
Can't try any harder than you tried for me

You're gonna get it, babe
I should have quit it, babe, but you look so good
Yeah you do you do you do you do
I kept thinking something might change, but I was just a fool

Go on, go to somebody else like you do it to me
I don't want you, can't crawl
I can't crawl any further
You never crawled for me

You're gonna get it, babe
Yeah should have quit it, babe, but you look so good
Yeah you do you do you do you do
I kept thinking something might change, but I was just a fool

You're gonna get it, babe
You're gonna get it, babe
You're gonna get it, babe
You're gonna get it, babe

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.
