Tell me why you wanna lay there and revel in your abandon...

Tom Petty - Refugee Lyrics
We got somethin', we both know it,
We don't talk too much about it.
Ain't no real big secret all the same,
somehow, we get around it.

It don't really matter to me, baby,
You believe what you want to believe,
You don't have to live like a refugee.
(Don't have to live like a refugee)

Somewhere, somehow,
Somebody must have kicked you around some.
Tell me why you wanna lay there and revel in your abandon.

It don't make no difference to me, baby,
Everybody's had to fight to be free,
You see you don't have to live like a refugee.
(Don't have to live like a refugee)

Baby, we ain't the first.
I'm sure a lot of other lovers been burned.
Right now this seems real to you,
But it's one of those things you gotta feel to be true.

Somewhere, somehow,
Somebody must have kicked you around some.
Who knows? Maybe you were kidnapped,
Tied up, taken away, and held for ransom.

It don't really matter to me, baby,
Everybody's had to fight to be free,
You see you don't have to live like a refugee.

Listened to a lot of Tom Petty during my rock phase in high school...this is probably my favourite song of his, though: "Don't Come Around Here No More"

7. Stevie Nicks sang backup on Stop Draggin My Heart Around

She might have done this too. Here's my favorite Tom Petty song. It reminds me of the summer I lived in L.A.

8. Many consider that

to be the ultimate Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers tune. I would not argue with them.
