You Don't Tell Me What To Do

You Don't Tell Me What To Do - Kris Kristofferson

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

It's a story that's sad but it's true

So I sing my own songs

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

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

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
