I tell you, baby, this is no way to live
Make sacrifices, 'til there's nothing to give
Everyone says there's rules to obey
I can't follow when things never changeHolding my check book, got a leak in the pipe
Food on the table, but the landlord's knocked twice
I want more than the shit on my back
I've worked too hard just to repeat the pastSatisfaction can be hard to find
I go crazy keeping it all insideAin't nobody's business how I live my life
I learnt my lesson whether it's wrong or right
Ain't nobody, baby, gonna tell me how
I should live my life, do live my way nowThe roof is leaking, stack of pillows on my bed
No way to wake up, all the dreams in my head
Phone don't ring, got no man on the line
Things could be better but I still feel fineWho can say what tomorrow will bring
You give nothing, expecting everythingAin't nobody's business how I live my life
I learnt my lesson whether it's wrong or right
Ain't nobody, baby, gonna tell me how
I should live my life, do live my way nowSatisfaction can be hard to find
I go crazy keeping it all insideAin't nobody's business how I live my life
I learnt my lesson whether it's wrong or right
Ain't nobody, baby, gonna tell me how
I should live my life, do live my way now
