Walkin’ From The Fire (Previously unreleased track from Southern Accents sessions—March 1, 1984) Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
They come out here with the dog on a chain
And they took my little brother away
Tell my mama he was selling cocaine
They took my brother to the juvenile house
Where they held for a quarter of an ounce
My mama told me not to hang around the house
I'm walkin' from the fire
Don't put me in a corner
Yeah, I'm trying to walk away
Let this one blow over
But I'm fightin' like a tiger
Don't put me in the corner
Last time I seen her was a discotheque
Countin' buttons on a lawyer's vest
She walked out but it ain't over yet
I'm walkin' from the fire
Don't put me in a corner
Just try to walk away
Let this one blow over
But I'm fightin' like a tiger
Don't put me in the corner
I'm walkin' from the fire
Don't put me in a corner
I'm walkin' from the fire
Don't put me in a corner
And they took my little brother away
Tell my mama he was selling cocaine
They took my brother to the juvenile house
Where they held for a quarter of an ounce
My mama told me not to hang around the house
I'm walkin' from the fire
Don't put me in a corner
Yeah, I'm trying to walk away
Let this one blow over
But I'm fightin' like a tiger
Don't put me in the corner
Last time I seen her was a discotheque
Countin' buttons on a lawyer's vest
She walked out but it ain't over yet
I'm walkin' from the fire
Don't put me in a corner
Just try to walk away
Let this one blow over
But I'm fightin' like a tiger
Don't put me in the corner
I'm walkin' from the fire
Don't put me in a corner
I'm walkin' from the fire
Don't put me in a corner
