Tom Petty - Leave Virginia Alone (Official Music Video)

Official Music Video for Tom Petty's "Leave Virginia Alone' from 'Wildflowers & All The Rest'

The album, Wildflowers, released in 1994, is commonly vaunted as Tom Petty’s most personal, most heartfelt, and most revealing artistic statement of his career. Recorded over the course of two years and originally intended to be a two-disc album, it was perhaps the most creative period in his life.

The release of Wildflowers & All The Rest on Oct 16, 2020 will finally gather together all 25 songs from the original recording sessions – the 15 songs from Wildflowers, plus the 10 songs that were left off the original release.

Lyrics
Well they chased her down the alley
And over the hill to steal her will
She was hot as Georgia asphalt
When the "A" crowd came to adore her brain

So leave Virginia alone
Leave Virginia alone
She's not like you and me
She's not like you and me

You should've seen her back in the city
Poetry and jewels, broke all the rules
She was as high as a Georgia pine tree
Makeup and pills, overdue bills

So leave Virginia alone
Leave Virginia alone
She's not like you and me
She's not like you and me

Some sunny day when the hands of time
Have had their way
You'll understand why it was so hard to run away

She's a loser, she's a forgiver
And she still finds good where no one could
You ought to want her more than money
Cadillacs and rust, diamonds and dust

So leave Virginia alone
Leave Virginia alone
She's not like you and me
She's not like you and me
Yeah, leave Virginia alone
Leave Virginia alone
She's not like you and me
She's not like you and me
