You Don't Own Me Lyrics

You don't own me, I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me, please dont treat me like other boys

And don't tell me what to do
don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display, 'cause
You don't own me, don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me, don't tie me down 'cause I'll never stay

I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So please let me be myself
That's all I ask of you
I'm young and I love to be young
And I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please

Don't tell me what to do
Don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display
I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So please let me be myself
That's all I ask of you

I'm young and I love to be young
And I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please
