- First Drafts of Rock take a look at the original version of Tom Petty's "Free Fallin'" - entitled "Free Horses." Lyrics below:
She’s a good girl, loves her mama
Loves horses, and America too
She’s a good girl, crazy ‘bout Elvis
Loves horses, and her boyfriend too.
She loves horses, and she also loves rainbows
She loves flowers, and horses too
She likes football, but she really loves horses
Yeah those horses, she really really loves.
But if there’s one thing, she loves most about horses
It’s that they’re horses, that’s the one thing
So just to be clear, she’s a fan of the horses,
She loves horses, la de da de da.
She digs horses, yeah she’s nuts about horses
She enjoys hor, ses yeah she does
She loves horse hair, horse teeth and horse noses
She loves horseshoes, and horses too.
She likes ponies, but not as much as horses
She likes horses, much much more
She likes unicorns, but she calls ‘em “horny horses”
She loves horses, yeah that’s what she loves.
She doesn’t like goats, and she don’t like llamas,
She don’t care for, them crazy kangaroos,
And I’m a bad boy, cuz I don’t like horses
She loves horses, Ventura Boulevard.
Now I’m free! Free horses!
Now I’m free! Free horses!

First Drafts of Rock: "Free Fallin'" by Tom Petty (w/ Kevin Bacon)

That random “Ventura Boulevard” gets me every time
That's also my favourite part. So random....
I’m just disappointed they didn’t fit Reseda in someplace.
I don't think it's random, but it is funny. Most people only know the place exists because of the song, and it had to be included by law!
That was the best part lol
Same ! Me and my buddy at work got stoned on lunch the other day and watched all of them. Now whenever Free Fallin comes on the radio it's forever the horse song....and the Ventura Blvd at the end we started dyin 😂😂😂😂...Kevin Bacon is the man.
Jimmy continuously walking up to Kevin as the chorus is supposed to start is absolutely hilarious. Like just the idea that every time he’s like “ah yeah here it comes here it comes” and then walking back away like “yo is Tom really still talking about horses”
🤣🤣🤣
i lost it when kevin bacon sang: "She loves unicorns, but she calls them horny horses." Wasnt expecting that lmao
That was hilarious, I died laughing 😂😂
Kevin does an amazing Tom Petty.
very weak compared to me
robert shelton I'd love to check that out sometime....love a good musician impersonation. And in case that comment was just cheekiness: lulz...it made me chuckle when I read it.
Does an amazing Jim Carrey doing a tom petty

I don't get how Kevin didn't break a smile
Jimmy's face is priceless.
he's a top actor that's how,this is cake for him
It's like Dumb and Dumber, but with Horses! Lol
He don't like horses
"But if there's one thing,
she loves most about horses -
it's that they're horses
that's the one thing."
Haaaaaaa
Lyrical gold
The crazy look Jimmy gives every time they skip his part...priceless
R.I.P. Tom Petty, thanks for the music.
If you close your eyes and listen to Bacon's rendition of Petty, it's F'ing amazing how perfectly he nails him. He must have rehearsed this every day for weeks - at a minimum. The subtle nuances are perfect.
He kind of looks like him. Kevin was a huge Petty fan, even wrote a tribute to him after he died.
Jimmy's face is priceless.
he is so funny
I think he would make a cool rock star!
He's hilarious, and accurate! Having been in bands I know how the character feels. "Arrrggh....he-missed-the-chorus!"
You don't even get the joke.
@@andreeaabro
He was almost famous you know.
We all had that one kid in our class that loved horses
This could be their theme song forever.
Jackie Gehringer better than goats
Jackie Gehringer I am that kid!
Jackie Gehringer true
Jackie Gehringer I did in jr high
She loves horses, Ventura Blvd.
My favorite part 😂😂😂
Lol. I’m a bad boy, cause I don’t like horses.
Best part is when he goes into Ventura blvd like nothing happen lol
That's what got me 😂😂😂
Keven and Jimmy should do an Axle and Slash bit!
when he said just to be clear i couldnt stop laughing
Love this show. My fav line: what she likes most about horses, is that they're horses.
Too funny!
I love how Jimmy is dying to play the chorus and it just doesn’t get there most of the performance… as others have stated, priceless😆
Jimmy and Kevin are good musicians and both can sing... it'd be great to hear them too a serious cover of something they could pull off
Every since I listened to this when fallon put it out and I hear free fallin on the radio, I always feel the urge to sing "free horses!!!" hahaha
Hilarious how you see Fallon stepping up and then fading off the microphone with the funny look on his face every time.
How Kevin kept it together throughout that song, with Jimmy beside him. That’s talent!
Hilarious, and I like the authenticity of the Rickenbacker.
jimmy is so good at rockn'roll costumes. he always looks the part to a T
They should have said "Yeah I breeeeeed... Breeeeeed horrrrrsssses!"
Genius!
They do say that I swear lol
Least the background singers sound like that’s what they are saying
Coco Ono but why would he breed horses when he is a bad boy thats doesnt like horses? 😂😂😂
@@telmolicious Maybe he is resentful because he doesn't like horses but now he has to breed them because of her; so he's writing this song to vent.
This is so kick-ass! Free Fallin' is one of my favorite songs, and to think if this was actually what Tom Petty originally had in mind. lol And Kevin Bacon rockin' that guitar and singing out?! Hell yeah! And Jimmy Fallon always rocks it when he sings.
friggin bacon.. he does a great petty. also, horses.
I really love the authenticity of all the band gear, an actual Hammond B3 that is above and beyond spoofing; and Fallon with the Gibson double neck, is looking like Jimmy Page LOL. Great job!
Kevin even has down the way TP sometimes sings thru the side of his mouth. I'm in TP's boyhood home, Gainesville, FL! GO TP! Yer a rock star forever now!
I haven't laughed this hard in a long time 😂😂😂😂😂😂
They also did the Beatles and another one, i forget. Just too Funny!!
I just love Kevin Bacon! And Tom Petty too! Absolutely great!
I love when he sneaks in Ventura Boulevard😂😂
lol Bacon's face is so sincere
I can't stop watching this video.
I love how you can tell how smart people are by the part of the song they start laughing at. That one lady realized it was a parody right away but most of the audience seemed to not get it until like the third "horses".
It’s a thing they do. Everyone knows jimmy fallon does parodies. I mean like they are an audience in his show lol.
So, nobody’s gonna mention how great Jimmy looks as Mike Campbell?
_She loves horses..._ *Ventura Boulevard*
I know. It's so stupid it's actually funny. This skit started out lame and got progressively hilarious.
Freeeeeeeee, Free horses!
Everyone in the band deserves credit for not cracking up. Also for their musical talent.
They aren't actually playing.
So funny and so much talent. Fallon always makes me smile!!!
I have only watched 1 minute of this, and I cannot believe I missed this somehow!!! Kevon Bacon!!! Ha!!!!!!! Love it!!!!!
Shit, I laughed so I cried! T.P must have done the same.
Horses, horses, horses...Ventura Boulevad.
Wonderful.
I love Kevin as well.
I love this! I can't seem to stop watching it.
I don't get how Kevin didn't break a smile
RedHotSlap I would've been laughing the whole time
KB is an actor .. he's probably very good at staying in character.
very good actor that's how
He's a musician and you gotta follow the lyrics in key no matter how silky
Because he likes horses too
Listening to the radio today and the original version comes on the radio! Wasn’t sure what it was but what made it familiar is when he Tom Petty sang the lyrics she likes horses!!! I love the original version BUT....the only version stuck in my mind is THIS ONE!!!! Original will never be the same!! 🤣🤣
After listening closely, I think the girl in the song indeed loves horses. 🐎
I'm a bad boy... cause I don't like horses 😂😂😂
I died 🤣🤣🤣
For those who don't know: Jimmy Fallon is supposed to be Mike Campbell. Jacksonville born but he eventually found his way to Gainesville too. He's been Tom Petty's lead guitarist almost since the beginning, and he also co-wrote music with Tom throughout their careers. He wrote the music to "Refugee" and Tom was the lyricist. He's one of the original Heartbreakers.
no he is supposed to be JEFF LYNNE, the guy they showed at the beginnign with the massive curly hair? Look at a picture of Mike Cambell and then Jeff Lynne and you tell me who he looks more like. PS. Jeff Lynne produced Free Fallin that's why he s there making weird faces at the "first horses draft"
"for those who don't know" lol... you don't know! all is well though now you do, at least you knew mike cambell :)
Courson If he were Jeff Lynne, his hair would be shorter and brown, he would’ve had a beard and sunglasses (sunglasses, at least, are kinda Jeff’s trademark). The hair and outfit is much more appropriate for Mike Campbell.
Check out the SNL performance of Free Fallin from 1989. Fallon is playing Mike Campbell here.
I think he looks more like Mike Campbell
I hope Tom liked this....I’m sure he did. Jimmy makes me laugh to tears....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love anything and everything Kevin Bacon does! 💜
Jimmy, keep these type of videos going on your show. they are so much fun to watch. Kevin Bacon is amazing with his voice and so are you! You do the BEST Bruce Springsteen. :)
It's been a sad week, I needed the laugh. And this is a lot funnier if like me you had a girlfriend who had horses.
Fricken hilarious LOVE it👋😅👍🤗
The kid I worked with played this on his guitar for senior citizens and they loved it. It was hilarious.
R.I.P. Tom Petty, great song!
These are always so perfect and spot on.
as if I didn't love Kevin Bacon enough, this is great. He does a spot-on Tom Petty!
I was really glad they revisited this bit. This is even better than the first one!
Kevin Bacon is now one degree closer to Tom and Jeff!
I laugh every time Jimmy Fallon walks up to the microphone and slowly walks away
free fallin is such a classic
"She loves hooorses. Ventura Boulevard." LOLZ
My Mom had horses growing up two blocks from Ventura Blvd. 70 years ago, when Encino was a Walnut Orchard.
We need this bit more than just a few times every couple of years!!!!
well that's gonna be stuck in my head for the next few days
me trying to write a song
Thanks Jimmy and Kevin. Loved it. I think many won't get the humor. That's their problem. Keep it up.
This really made my day.
I love Tom so much
Tom Petty 😢😢😢
Great Kevin Bacon and Jimmy 👍
I like to listen to this on my way to the hamburger stand.
I’ve heard they use something other than beef in their hamburgers.
🎶She’s a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She’s a good girl, crazy about Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too…🎶
gotta love Jimmy and Kevin I knew I couldn't miss it tonight.
when he said just to be clear i couldnt stop laughing
We all had that one kid in our class that loved horses
friggin bacon.. he does a great petty. also, horses.
Awesome... I never knew this was the actual first draft...! Well done Jimmy & Kevin... lol...
love this song 💖
I think it's really brilliant to have write the lyrics in the information box :)
Kevin is a good good good actor He didn't smile on this hahahaha. He's in character
It's not the lyrics,
It's the music ♡
R.I.P. Tom Petty's
I love Petty too much for this!
First Drafts is my new happy 😊 😃
This was magical!
I love the subtle John Mayer in the background.
Jimmy's voice is my favourite ❤️
Yes, pal. He can sing too.
My husband says this had to be written about me... hahahahaa Horses, ponies, horses, all of them!
I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more horses! 🐎
LMAO ,I can't believe he sang horney horses !!!😄😆😅🤣😂
I love Tom Petty so much, he is my biggest hero. Rest In Peace my friend.
What could be hotter than Kevin Bacon? Kevin Bacon singing about us crazy horse women
Every time I hear the song “free fallin” I switch the words to “free ballin” I so wish they’d have done that too lol
So, I'm not quite sure what she likes..can anyone help me?
I don't think anyone can.
I think dogs
It's that one animal...blanking on the name...
Ponies and unicorns.
+Timothy Graham you mean horny horses?
well it was before tom passed so i am sure he was hysterical over this
I never thought I could love Kevin Bacon more... Then this
Chorus! "Free horses, now I'm free horses, yeah I'm free horses now I"m free horses" -bahahaha!!!
I LOVE THESE SILLY COMBOS, GOOD TO SEE MASTER BACON GROOVIN W MR. FALLON
I'm seriously ashamed of how funny I found that! Thanks for posting
This was Great. There was so much laughter in the background. 😍
They had Fun horsing around. 🐎🐴🏇
jimmy cracks me up yo lol
The one thing they could have added that would be funny, is after they finally sang the first chorus, Kevin broke out in another verse, while Jimmy went to continue the chorus.
Gotta go watch Hamburger Stand now!
I think that one was the best first draft!
I wish they had put more emphasis on horses.
🤣🤣🤣
Loved it! Good job Kevin Bacon!
Jimmy's facial expressions tho
He's such a physical comedian lol
Jimmy Fallon is honestly one of the funniest people on tv I'd like to meet him one day
I love Jimmy Fallon's stuff!!
Kevin Bacon looks like Myles Kennedy with 60 years 😂😂😂
