It's My Life

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 surf in
No more time spent sweatin' 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 mother orphans
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
And 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 (It's my life)
It's my life and I'll do what I want (I can do what I want)
