Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

Don't tell me what to do

And don't tell me what to say

Please when I go out with you

Don't put me on display 'cause

[Verse 3]

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

[Verse 4]

Oh, I don't tell you what to say

And I don't tell you what to do

So just let me be myself

That's all I ask of you

[Verse 5]

I'm young and I love to be young

And free and I love to be free

To live my life the way I want

To say and do whatever I please

[Verse 6]

Don't tell me what to do

And you don't tell me what to say

And please when I go out with you

Don't put me on display 'cause

[Verse 7]

I don't, I don't tell you what to say, baby

But I don't tell you what to do but to start to sing, yeah

You got to sing, yeah

You got something to sing, yeah, you got something to sing, yeah, ooh

Na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na

You got to, you got to, you got, you got, you got

Waah, yeah-yeah-yeah

Ow, come on baby, it's okay

Both the windows are open and you're falling

Baby
