Текст песни Harry Green - Tom Petty

Harry Green was my old friend
We met in spanish class
Helped me out of a spot I was in
He stopped a redneck from kickin' my ass
Stopped a redneck from kickin' my ass

Harry Green was strong and tall
Played on the football team
Them good old boys said: "You better watch out
He's not what he would seem
He's not what he would seem."

Harry Green
Was alright by me
Harry Green
Was alright with me

Well them high school halls can sure get rough
When you ain't like everyone else
Harry Green had to hold so much
Deep inside himself,
Deep inside himself

Harry Green was middle class,
Sixteen he got a new car
I remember him in the talent show,
Bangin' on his old guitar
Bangin' on his old guitar

Harry Green
Was alright with me
Harry Green
Was alright by me

It was second-hand news in the middle of day
Sounded like rumor or lie
Pontiac wrapped around an old oak tree
Vehicular suicide
Harry Green had died

Sometimes I wish I was still a boy,
With life ahead of me
One day I'll go back and say a few words
Over Harry Green
Over Harry Green

Yeah, Harry Green
Was alright by me
Harry Green
Was alright by me
