Intro:
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 d never stay
Oh, 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 life my life the way i want
To say and do whatever i please
Instrumental:
