"Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" lyrics

Molly Tuttle & Nathaniel Rateliff Lyrics

"Stop Draggin' My Heart Around"
(originally by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers & Stevie Nicks)

Baby, you come knockin' on my front door
Same old line you used to use before
And I said yeah, well, what am I supposed to do?
I didn't know what I was gettin' into

So you got a little trouble in town
Now you're keepin' some demons down
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around

It's hard to think about what you wanted
It's hard to think about what you lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all

I know you really wanna tell me goodbye
I know you really wanna be your own girl

Baby, you could never look me in the eye
Yeah, you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around

People runnin' 'round loose in the world
Ain't got nothin' better to do
Make a meal of some bright-eyed kid
You need someone lookin' after you

I know you really wanna tell me goodbye
I know you really wanna be your own girl

Baby, you could never look me in the eye
Yeah, you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around

Stop draggin' my heart around
Stop draggin' my heart around
