(say)
...say I'm gonna ride the serpent
No more time spent sweatin' rent
F [3 bars]
Hear my command I'm breakin' loose
It ain't no use
F [2 bars]
Holdin' me down
G [3 bars]
Stick around
But baby (but baby)
Remember (remember)
Chorus
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 you sometime
But someday I'll treat you real fine
Verse 2
There'll be women and their fortunes
Who just love to mother orphans
Are you gonna cry, when I'm squeezin' 'em dry
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
Who complains
So girl cut out
Any doubt
But baby (but baby)
Remember (remember)
Chorus
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 you sometime
But someday I'll treat you real fine
Coda
(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) [fade]
