Songs 'n Verses

I associate this song with Tom...Cruise i.e. not Petty. Jerry Maguire karaokeing with his car radio on this song in full volume seemed like such a bright spot in a dull life. One of the movie's highlight the way it conveys the uplifted mood of a sagging yet fighting spirit. Great song, great attitude!!

Free Fallin' - Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers

She's a good girl, loves her mama
loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
loves horses and her boyfriend too

It's a long day, livin' in Reseda
there's a freeway, runnin' through the yard
and I'm a bad boy, 'cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart

And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

All the vampires, walkin' through the valley
Move west down, Ventura Blvd.
And all the bad boys, are standing in the shadows
All the good girls, are home with broken hearts

And I'm free, I'm free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

I wanna glide down, over Mulholland
I wanna write her, name in the sky
I wanna free fall, out into nothin'
Gonna leave this, world for awhile

And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

And I'm free, free fallin'
Oh!

Free fallin'
And I'm free, oh! free fallin'!!
