Tom Petty - You Wreck Me [Official Music Video]

CONNECT

Lyrics:
Tonight we ride, right or wrong
Tonight we sail, on a radio song
Rescue me, should I go down
If I stay too long in trouble town

Oh, yeah, you wreck me, baby
Yeah, you break me in two
But you move me, honey
Yes, you do

Now and again, I get the feeling
Well, if I don't win, I'm a-gonna break even
Rescue me, should I go wrong
If I dig too deep, if I stay too long

Oh, yeah, you wreck me, baby
Yeah, you break me in two
But you move me, honey
Yes, you do

I'll be the boy in the corduroy pants
You'll be the girl at the high school dance
Run with me, wherever I go
And just play dumb, whatever you know

Oh, yeah, you wreck me, baby
Yeah, you break me in two
But you move me, honey
Yes, you do
You wreck me, baby
Yeah, you break me in two
Oh, but you move me, honey
Ah, yes, you do

I don’t understand why this isn’t played ever on rock radio. All I ever hear is “Runnin’ Down a Dream.”

**Bit of a long post, but I don't care.* My Dad passed on in 2007 when I was 29. It took until April 8th, 2024 to listen again. BURST of EMOTIONs as Clarity. The song was "Saving Grace" which was the last song we listened to Together in 2007. Now I'm jammin' *soberly*. 46 years of Age? Aside from a daily painful back, but I earned Every Scar. Petty, Ozzy, Alice In Chains...I'd say are my 3 biggest Rock Influences. All By 46!!! **I almost died many times, but each time it showed me How to Accept the Ways I Think.

2024 and I'm 39...still blasting this loud!!! R.I.P tom

I think it’s actually harder to write a simple song that doesn’t sound cheesy, than it is to write highfalutin mumbo-jumbo. Petty had a gift.

[Dameon]

Tom Petty has written himself into rock n roll history as one of the greatest musicians to walk the earth.

[OhioCoastie]

Straight ahead, unpretentious, driving rock.

RIP, Tom. Still miss having you around.

[sally]

Tom, you are alive in my heart, never left, never will, I love you

[cmacable]

I'd followed him since I was 16 (1977) and when he died, it astounded me that it was 40 years later. He was just "always there", churning out one good album after another. I really can't remember a time in my life that I didn't have one of his songs running through my head. In a world full of dullards it's hard to lose a true original.

[jshepard]

Tom sure could write them. And play them. And sing them. He's sorely missed.

[ronaldwaynethomasjr]

Tom Petty is one of the greatest songwriter and composer ever known..

[sassulusmagnus]

I'll be the boy in the corduroy pants. You be the girl at the high school dance.
Great lyric. Elegantly simple, yet it puts you right in that scene.

[yanuriroschev]

Of the countless Tom Petty hits gave to us, this one has an unmistakable drive that you just can't help but crank! RIP Tom Petty!

[billaustin]

Thank you GOD for letting us have Tom Petty as long as you did, just wish You could have waited a little longer before taking him. RIP TOM PETTY

[BergXX]

Damn right I'm here in 2024 because real music has no expiration date. We've already witnessed the greatest music of all time, there will never be a better time for music that's already come and gone. Long live rock and roll.

[kc]

This man is my whole heart. ❤ I wish so badly he was still here with us.

[jaxon]

Rest in peace Tom, you're a true legend who's music will live on forever.

[cpresto]

You gotta love Steve Ferrone. Just sitting back there smiling, hammering it down. What a legend.

[pinkybailey]

Is this song just so damn good or what? Really I mean, wow!!!  It is one of their best songs.

[matthewlamos]

I grew up with Tom Petty’s music and I still am listening to his music in 2021! R I P to one of the greatest rock and roll artists and to an amazing musician and songwriter! I miss you Tom

[CARLOSMARTINEZ-rjjd]

Tom was like a childhood friend. I was 11 when the first Heartbreakers album came out. And decades of great songs (like this one!) just kept coming. I saw them live in Miami in the Nineties, and I'll never forget their rendition of Purple Haze. Pure genius!
