You cut your teeth in Gainesville bars
‘Fore movin’ to LA
Lost the crutch and learned to fly
Your great wide open way
It was damn the torpedos
Full speed ahead
Eighty million records later
The New York Times said you were dead…

(Chorus)

So heartbreaker, risk taker
Hit maker- so long
You can’t come ‘round here no more
But you ain’t really gone
‘Cause me and Mary Jane still love
Those Tom Petty Songs…

While you were runnin’ down a dream
Rock ‘n roll became fine art
In a world of refugees
You listened to the heart
That jacked up Rickenbacker
With the classic jangle sound
Said… even when we’re losers
We won’t… back… down…

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I breakdown
Everytime I think about it
Your name
Vanished from the lights
I cheer up
When the Heartbreakers
Sing about it
Turn on my radio
Tom Petty’s all right…

(Chorus)

So heartbreaker, risk taker
Hit maker- so long
You can’t come ‘round here no more
But you ain’t really gone
‘Cause me and Mary Jane still love
Those Tom Petty Songs…
Those Heartbreaker songs
So heartbreaker, risk taker
Hit maker- so long
Me and Mary Jane still love
Those Tom Petty…songs
