Don't Tell Me My Mind

I'll ramble far and wide

But who knows where I'll be

Walking down some rocky road

Or sailing 'cross the sea?

I have no true love

No girl to leave behind

It's my life and I like it

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me that I'm wrong

Let this song be remembered

When I'm dead and gone

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me that I'm wrong

Let this song be remembered when I'm gone

I'll go and see this world of ours

And all its people too

From China to America

Across the oceans blue

I'll sing about my travels

Good times I'll surely find

It's my life and I like it

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me that I'm wrong

Let this song be remembered

When I'm dead and gone

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me that I'm wrong

Let this song be remembered when I'm gone

You say I'm kind of foot-loose

I'll never settle down

But I don't want to hang around

In this old one horse town

I've got so many things to do

And oh so little time

It's my life and I like it

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me that I'm wrong

Let this song be remembered

When I'm dead and gone

Don't tell me my mind

Don't tell me that I'm wrong

Let this song be remembered when I'm gone
