Artist/Band: Tom Petty
Lyrics for Song: Ankle Deep
Lyrics for Album: Highway Companion [2006]



Well, they raised that horse to be a jumper

He was owned by a mid-west bible thumper

His preacher was a Louisiana drummer

Took all winter to get through the summer



The fieldhand hit the switch and stumbled

Outside the big engine roared and rumbled

The stolen horse spooked and tumbled

She didn't speak for a week

Just kinda mumbled



ankle deep in love (x4)



He was caught up in a lie he half believed

Found her hiding high in the family tree

Washed his hands and put her cross his knee

She said daddy "you been a mother to me"



ankle deep in love (x4)
