Lyrics Two Men Talking - Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers

Two Men Talking

We got two men talkin' right outside my door, yeah
We got two men talkin' right outside my door
Said they made my boy a soldier
Sent him off to war.
Well, are youse gonna stand?
No, I can’t say for sure.
No, I can’t
Well, I got one wheel turning
One that’s off the tracks
Well, I got one wheel turning
One that’s off the tracks
I can put all I own inside a paper sack
Well when the hard times come, you’re gonna see who’s got your back
Sure will
Yeah, I lost that good woman
Lord, she left me twice
Yeah, I lost that good woman
Lord, she left me twice
Well, I shoulda tried much harder
Tried to treat her nice
I used to be someone that I don’t recognise
Ain’t that true
Well, we got two men talkin'
Talking by the rule
Well, we got two men talkin'
Talking by the rule
Well, they put me down
And it hurt more than it showed
I heard one man laugh
Said «Brother, we tread a heavy load.»
That’s right
