You don't own me
|
I'm not just one of your many toys
|
You don't own me
|
Don't say I can't go with other boys
|
|
And don't tell me what to do
|
And don't tell me what to say
|
And, please, when I go out with you
|
Don't put me on display
|
|
'Cause, you don't own me
|
Don't try to change me in any way
|
You don't own me
|
Don't tie me down
|
'Cause I'll never stay
|
|
I don't tell you what to say
|
I don't tell you what to do
|
So, just let me be myself
|
That's all I ask of you
|
|
I'm young and I love to be young
|
I'm free and I love to be free
|
To live my life the way that I want
|
To say and do whatever I please
|
|
And, don't tell me what to do, yeah
|
Don't, don't you tell me what to say
|
And, please, when I go out with you
|
Don't put me on display
|
|
I don't tell you what to say
|
I don't tell you what to do
|
So, just let me be myself
|
That's all I ask of you
|
I'm young and I love to be young
|
I'm free and I love to be free
|
To live my life the way that I want
|
To say and do whatever I please
|
