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 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
But you move me, honey
Yes, you do

Petty is not a favorite of mine. His voice and music in general is a droning sound to me. So a 5 is as far as I can push it. |

| Nerubo (Denver, CO) | Posted: Sep 26, 2011 - 14:10 I read/saw an interview somewhere where Tom said the original lyrics were "You Rock Me" but one of the band members objected to the rather generic lyric, and he responded jokingly, "You Wreck Me", and it stuck. |
