Eric Burdon

Its a hard world to get a break in
All the good things have been taken
But girl there are ways
To make certain things pay
Though Im dressed in these rags
Ill wear sable some day
Hear what I say
Im gonna ride the serpent
No more time spent sweatin rent
Hear my command
Im breakin loose, it aint no use
Holdin me down, stick around
And baby, baby
Remember, remember
Its my life and Ill do what I want
Its my mind and Ill think like I want
Show me Im wrong, hurt me sometime
But some day Ill treat you real fine
Therell be women and their fortunes
Who just want to mother orphans
Are you gonna cry
While Im squeezin them dry
Takin all I can get, no regrets
When I, openly lie
And live on their money
Believe me honey, that money
Can you believe, I aint no saint
No complaints
So girl throw out
Any doubt
And baby (baby)
Remember (remember)
Its my life and Ill do what I want
Its my mind and Ill think like I want
Show me Im wrong, hurt me sometime
But some day Ill treat you real fine
(Its my life and Ill do what I want) Dont push me
(Its my mind and Ill think like I want) Its my life
(Its my life and Ill do what I want) And I can do what I want
(Its my mind and Ill think like I want) You cant tell me
(Its my life and Ill do what I want)
