Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You gotta go where you wanna go

And do what you wanna do

With whoever you wanna do it with

[Verse 2]

You gotta go where you wanna go

And do what you wanna do

With whoever you wanna do it with

[Verse 3]

You don't understand

That a girl like me can love just one man

[Verse 4]

Three thousand miles, that's how far you'll go

And you said to me, please don't follow

[Verse 5]

You gotta go where you wanna go

And do what you wanna do

With whoever you wanna do it with

[Verse 6]

You gotta go where you wanna go

And do what you wanna do

With whoever you wanna do it with

[Verse 7]

You don't understand

That a girl like me can love just one man

[Verse 8]

You've been gone a week

And I tried so hard

Not to be the crying kind

Not to be the girl you left behind

[Verse 9]

You gotta go where you wanna go

And do what you wanna do

With whoever you wanna do it with

[Verse 10]

You gotta go where you wanna go

And do what you wanna do

Go where you want

Do what you want

[Verse 11]

You gotta go where you wanna go

And do what you wanna do

With whoever you wanna do it with
