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 gonna ride the serpent

No more time spent sweatin' rent

Hear my command

I'm breakin' loose, it ain't no use

Holdin' me down, stick 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 some day I'll treat you real fine



There'll be women and their fortunes

Who just won't do ???? ??? ????

Are you gonna cry, when I'm squeezin' the rye

Takin' all I can get, no regrets

When I, openly lie

And leave only money

Believe me honey, that money

Can you believe, I ain't no saint

No complaints

So girl go out

Hand it out



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 some day 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) And I can do what I want

(It's my mind and I'll think what I want) You can't tell me

(It's my life and I'll do what I want
