You say, I do everything the wrong way
Why don't I do it your way?
Then maybe someday
I'll be just like youBut I say I'm gonna do it my way
The "I might fail but I'll try" way
Well that's been done but it's okay
I'll do what I wanna do'Cause I don't want to live your dream
I don't want to live your dreamNo way, I'll take the chances this time
I've gotta go and live life
And I won't let you try and take mine
I just won't let you'Cause I don't want to live your dream
I don't want to live your dream
I won't change what I believe
I won't change what I believeSo try to hold me if you want
Try to control me if you want
But you won't keep me down
I'm not your clown
I've got to find my own way now
So try to hold me if you wantI say, I'm gonna do it my way
The "I might fail but I'll try" way
Well, that's been done but it's okay
I'll do what I wanna do'Cause I don't want to live your dream
I don't want to live your dream
I won't change what I believe
I won't change what I believeYou say, I do everything the wrong way
