Tom Petty — The Golden Rose

Well, The Golden Rose sailed with a broken man Going South Got on board with a woman to lead him around By the mouth And it's goodbye, Golden Rose Yeah, it's goodbye, Golden Rose Well, the captain who swears if he speaks at all Wears a gun Got a first mate who's never quite on the ball For his son And it's goodbye, Golden Rose Yeah, it's goodbye, Golden Rose Wish I was back in her arms again Wish I was holding her tight Wish I was back in her arms again Safe from the night She stood on the shore and she waved to me "Come back home" Many a-night I would think of her All alone And it's goodbye, Golden Rose Yeah, it's goodbye, Golden Rose
