Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Moon Pie Lyrics | gotlyric.com

Released: November 20, 1995

Songwriter: Tom Petty

Producer: Mike W. Campbell Tom Petty

Well who you callin' moon pie, my real name is Richard
I live in a little town you've probably never been to before
There's a post office surrounded with gardenias
And a pair of mud flaps waggling at my door

I don't know what I want to say but somebody's got to help me
Nobody knows I'm here
No please don't call me moon pie, my real name is Richard
My identity will disappear

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

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.
