You Don’t Tell Me What To Do lyrics

So the highway is where I believe I belong
Losing myself in the soul of a song
And the fight for the right to be righteously wrong
In a story that's sad but it's true

So I sing my own song and I drink when I'm thirsty
And I will go on making music, and whiskey
And love for as long as the spirit inside me says
You don't tell me what to do

[Chorus]
Gone are the reasons for changing my mind
Gone with the future that I left behind
If you want to I warn you, you're wasting your time
You don't tell me what to do

[Instrumental interlude]

[Chorus]
Gone are the reasons for changing my mind
Gone with the future that I left behind
If you want to I warn you, you're wasting your time
You don't tell me what to do

You don't tell me what to do
