Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Sweet William (B-Side version)

The album version of Tom Petty's "Sweet William". It was featured as the B-Side on the single to the song "Room at the Top" off of Echo (1999). Petty and the Heartbreakers played this song regularly during their 2008 tour and it's almost impossible to find the album version if you don't want to pay an insane amount of money. Since there's no video with the album version, I decided to make my own! Enjoy =)


Was a cold wind blowin,
Nobody on the street
Was a tornado warning, most people had to leave
You better hide your wicked ways
You better change your evil mind

You better run from the sun, hide from the moon
Wait till it all comes down
Sweet William's back in town

You crow like a rooster, but you back down like a hen
You crow like a rooster, and then come back again
You better change your wicked ways
You better hide your evil mind

You better run from the sun, hide from the moon
Wait till it all comes down
Sweet William's back in town

I don't swing no razor, I don't swing no gun
Honey I don't swing no razor, hey I don't fire no gun
You better hide your wicked way
You better change your wicked mind

You better run from the sun, hide from the moon
Wait till it all go down
Sweet William's back in town
