[Verse 1: Tom Petty]
She was there at the bar, she heard my guitar
She was long and tall, she was the queen of them all
[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
[Verse 2: Tom Petty]
She was dark and discreet, she was light on her feet
We went up to her room and she lowered the boom
[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
[Verse 3: Roy Orbison]
Down below they danced and sang in the street
While up above the walls were steaming with heat
[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
[Verse 4: Tom Petty]
I was feeling no pain, feeling good in my brain
I looked in her eyes, they were full of surprise
[Chorus]
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
[Verse 5: Roy Orbison]
I asked her to marry me she smiled and pulled out a knife
The party's just beginning she said, "Your money or your life?"
[Chorus]
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
[Verse 6: Tom Petty]
Now I'm back at the bar, she went a little too far
She done me wrong, all I got is this song
[Outro]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night...
She was there at the bar, she heard my guitar
She was long and tall, she was the queen of them all
[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
[Verse 2: Tom Petty]
She was dark and discreet, she was light on her feet
We went up to her room and she lowered the boom
[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
[Verse 3: Roy Orbison]
Down below they danced and sang in the street
While up above the walls were steaming with heat
[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
[Verse 4: Tom Petty]
I was feeling no pain, feeling good in my brain
I looked in her eyes, they were full of surprise
[Chorus]
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
[Verse 5: Roy Orbison]
I asked her to marry me she smiled and pulled out a knife
The party's just beginning she said, "Your money or your life?"
[Chorus]
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
[Verse 6: Tom Petty]
Now I'm back at the bar, she went a little too far
She done me wrong, all I got is this song
[Outro]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night...
