Story behind the song
Just having some fun with my 175.
Lyrics
To many people who want to tell you what to do. Hey Mister this is what I'd be If I were you. They tell you what you can eat. Tell you what you should drink. They tell you how you should live. They even tell you what to think. But I don't care what they say, no way. I've got a mind of my own. 9 to 5 it's a way to survive. They say it's what you gotta do just to keep yourself alive. They tell you what to be. They tell you what you need to know. They tell you when you should come. They even tell you when to go. Well I just can't live that way. Uh uh. I've got a mind of my own. Well speak up. And slow down. Let me tell you how to turn your whole life around. Well try this and see You can be just like me. Well no thank you sir. I've got a mind of my own. We've got a group in the know Who decide where and when. They turn their thoughts into laws So you can be just like them. They tell you where you can smoke. They put a tax on your beer. They tell you who you should pray too And try to fill your life with fear. But I'm not afraid Huh Uh. I've got a mind of my own. No thank you maam, I know the way. I've got a mind of my own. No advice today. I've got a mind of my own.
