Century City Lyrics

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Century City

Songwriters: Petty, Tom;

Sometimes I wanna leave here
Sometimes I wanna go
Right back where I came from
Back where I belong

But it never lasts for too long
Always goes away
And I still don't look for reasons
That's much too hard these days

Don't worry about the rain
Don't worry about the thunder
Baby, Century City got everything covered

Well, your mama gave you lovin'
Mama held you near
Baby, mama can't do nothin'
Honey, mama just ain't here

And you can pretend all you want to
That won't work no more
No, you can't run back to daddy
Yeah, you tried that once before

Don't worry about your father
Why worry about your brother?
Honey, Century City got everything covered

We're gonna live in Century City
Go ahead and give in, Century City
Like modern men, modern girls
We're gonna live in the modern world

We're gonna live in Century City
Go ahead and give in, Century City
Like modern men, modern girls
We're gonna live in the modern world

Sometimes I get discouraged
Sometimes I feel so down
Sometimes I get so worried
But I don't know what about

But it works out in the long run
Always goes away
And I've come now to accept it
It's a reoccurring phase

Don't worry about the rain
Don't worry about the thunder
Century City got everything covered

We're gonna live in Century City
We're gonna live in Century City
We're gonna live in Century City
We're gonna live in Century City
