I used to drink a lot
I used to smoke a lot still do
So what? What's it to you?
And that's the way I'm gonna be

I used to scream a lot
I used to fight a lot still do
Why not, boo hoo
That's just the way I'm built to be

Nobody tells me what to say, nobody tells me what to do
So if you're feeling froggy I'll slap you black 'n' blue
Nobody tells me I can't talk, nobody tells me I can't walk
And if you try and put them cuffs
on me you're gonna wake up lined in chalk

Girls used to jump on me
When I was 23
They still do
That's right I repeat they still do
Ain't got a thing to prove to you

What goes around, comes around
Goes around, straight on down
So take your best shot and pray you knock me cold
Only way, you'll ever shake me

Nobody tells me what to say, nobody tells me what to do
So if you're feeling froggy I'll slap you black 'n' blue
Nobody tells me I can't talk, nobody tells me I can't walk
And if you're dumb enough to swing
on me I'm gonna knock your block right off

Nobody tells me what to say, nobody tells me what to do
And if you're feeling lucky
son I'm gonna stomp all over you
Nobody tells me I can't talk, nobody tells me I can't walk
And if one more time you stinkeye me
I'm gonna stuff you in a box

Me, I was born this way
Might even die someday
If I want
Ha ha, yeah we'll see
(Nope)
What happens in between don't blame me

You may think I don't care
That ain't the case I swear
Cuz I do
About me, just don't care about you
That's the way I'll always be

Nobody tells me what to say, nobody tells me what to do
I drank your bar tab dry last night
and I clipped your wallet, too
Think you can tell me what to say
think you can tell me what to do
But here's a news flash for you cuz I took your Mary Lou
