[Tom Petty, The Heartbreakers - I'm Tired Joey Boy lyrics]
I'm tired Joey Boy while you're
Out with the sheep
My life is so troubled I can't go to sleep
And I would walk myself out but
The streets are so dark
I will wait 'til the morning
And walk in the park
Yeah life is so simple when one isn't home
And I'm never complaining when there's
Work to be done
Oh I'm tired Joey Boy with the makings of men
I would like to be cheerful again
And ambition will take you and
Ride you too far
And conservatism will bring you
To boredom once more
So go out by the river watch the stream flow
Recall all those dreams you once used to know
The ones you've forgotten that took you away
To pastures not greener but meaner
Yeah the love of the simple
Is all that I need
I have no time for schism or lovers of greed
Go up to the mountain go up to the glen
Where silence will touch you
And heartbreak will mend
Out with the sheep
My life is so troubled I can't go to sleep
And I would walk myself out but
The streets are so dark
I will wait 'til the morning
And walk in the park
Yeah life is so simple when one isn't home
And I'm never complaining when there's
Work to be done
Oh I'm tired Joey Boy with the makings of men
I would like to be cheerful again
And ambition will take you and
Ride you too far
And conservatism will bring you
To boredom once more
So go out by the river watch the stream flow
Recall all those dreams you once used to know
The ones you've forgotten that took you away
To pastures not greener but meaner
Yeah the love of the simple
Is all that I need
I have no time for schism or lovers of greed
Go up to the mountain go up to the glen
Where silence will touch you
And heartbreak will mend
