Guess who left me here for dead
My friends, my friends, my good friends

And it's time that I stop kiddin' myself
I don't belong
I don't belong to you
I don't belong to you

Yeah, you hurt me so low down
Hurt me, hurt me so low down

And it's time that I stop kiddin' myself
I don't belong
I don't belong to you
I don't belong to you

Show me love that don't wear out
Show me that love that don't run down

And it's time that I stop kiddin' myself
I don't belong (I don't belong)
I don't belong to you (no, no, no, no)
I don't belong (I don't belong) to you

I don't belong
I don't belong
I don't belong to you
Oh, what can I do?
I don't belong
I don't belong

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers – an L.A.-based gang of sharp-dressed garage-rock refugees from Gainsville, Florida – released their debut LP in November 1976, featuring two tracks which are now part of their long list of hits, “Breakdown” and “American Girl.”

Since that first LP in ‘76, the band’s style has epitomized and largely defined the American “heartland rock” movement – a vintage-guitar twang, hard lyric truth, and searing vocal attitude.

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers have been nominated for 17 Grammy awards and sold more than 80 million records worldwide, making them one of the world’s best-selling bands of all-time.
