I absolutely adore the John Mayer version of this song.
I don't know why, but I've definitely been on a lyrics-posts kick lately. Maybe I'll post something substantial later.
Read it though, I like the words.
She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too
It's a long day living in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy cos I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart
And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
All the good girls are home with broken hearts ...
And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
Gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while

Oh, Katie, you make me fear for the upcoming generation.
John Mayer is.... aiiight, you know what I'm saying?
But he does NOT do that song justice! You cannot say that he does it better than Tom Petty!
I agree with Nathan; I didn't even know John Mayer did a cover of it. . . However, great choice of song to post.
