Running wild crazy and free Being anything I want to be Got no time for hanging around Ain't nobody gonna tie me down Spend my time doing what I please Take the world on, got 'em on their knees People think that I'm no good Won't do the things they think I should Life's confusing me and messin' me around Don't know if I'm ever coming down Got to get your mind out of my head Leave me alone and live your life instead Play my music way too loud My hair's too long, I don't fit in the crowd Leather jacket and denim jeans Metal studs run down the seams Times are hard but I don't care ' Cause if I want it I'll take my share Talkin' life on a bit too steep Outta my way or I'll bury you deep Gotta stop pushin' shovin' me around Gotta stop tryin' to put me down Got to get your mind out of my head Leave me alone and live your life instead Lotta people got a lot to say But I'm doing things my own way ' Cause I'm free as the wind Maybe someday they will understand Just why I choose to be my own man It doesn't matter I ain't gonna change The master plan should be rearranged Breaking rules is what I do On the bad side it's a better view If it's too loud then you're too old Get the hell out 'cause you've been told Gotta stop pushin' shovin' me around Gotta stop tryin' to put me down Got to get your mind out of my head Leave me alone and live your life instead Lotta people got a lot to say But I'm doing things my own way ' Cause I'm free as the wind
