It's a hard world to get a break in All the good things have been taken But girl there are ways to make certain things pay Though I'm dressed in these rags, I'll wear sable some day
Hear what I say I'm gonna ride the serpent No more time spent sweatin' rent Hear my command It ain't no use, I'm breakin' loose, Holdin' me down, stick around
But baby (baby) Remember (remember) It's my life and I'll do what I want It's my mind and I'll think what I want Show me I'm wrong, hurt me sometime But some day I'll treat you real fine
