It's a hard world to get a break in
All the good things have been taken
But girl there are ways
To make certain things pay
Though I'm dressed in these rags
I'll wear sable some day
Hear what I say
I'm going to ride this serpent
No more time spent sweating rent
Hear my command?
I'm breakin' loose...it ain't no use
Holdin' me down…stickin' around
But baby, baby, remember, remember…
It's my life and I'll do what I want
It's my mind and I'll think what I want
Show me I'm wrong …hurt me sometime
But someday I'll treat you real fine
There'll be women…and their fortunes
Who'll just want to.. more than offer thier's
Are you going to cry
When I'm squeezin' you right
Taking all I can get…no regrets
When I…
Open their lives
And live on their money
Believe me honey...that money
Can you believe?
I ain't no saint…no complaints!
So girl before I…????
But baby, baby, remember, remember…
It's my life and I'll do what I want
It's my mind and I'll think what I want
Show me I'm wrong
Hurt me sometime
But someday I'll treat you real fine
It's my life and I'll do what I want
Don't push me!
It's my mind and I'll think what I want
It's my life!
It's my life and I'll do what I want
I can do what I want!
It's my mind and I'll think what I want
You can't tell me babe!
It's my life and I'll do what I want
I'll do what I want!
