Swingin’ Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Well, she was standing by the highway
In her boots and silver spurs
Gonna hitchhike to the yellow moon
When a Cadillac stopped for her
And she said, "Hey, nice to meet you
Are you goin' my way?"
Yeah, that's when it happened
The world caught fire that day

And she went down swingin'
Yeah, she went down swingin'

Well, she was over twenty-one
In trouble with the law
And it didn't faze her none
She called her mother-in-law
And said "I need a little money
I know I can count on you
After that night in Vegas
And the hell that we went through"

We went down swingin'
Like Benny Goodman
Yeah, we went down swingin'
Yes, we did
