Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis
Control (Extended Mix)
[Intro]
I got my own mind
I wanna make my own decisions
When it has to do with my life
I wanna be the one in control
Control
Control
Hop to it
Control
Control
[Verse 1]
When I was 17, I did what people told me, uhh!
I did what my father said, and let my mother mold me
But that was long ago
I'm in
[Chorus]
Control
Never gonna stop
Control
To get what I want
Control
I like to have a lot
Control
Now I’m all grown up
[Verse 2]
First time I fell in love, I didn't know what hit me
So young and so naive, I thought it would be easy
Now I know I got to take
[Chorus]
Control
Now I got a lot
Control
To get what I want
Control
Never gonna stop
Control
Now I'm all grown up
[Interlude]
Jam, ooh-ooh
Rebel, that’s right
I'm on my own, I'll call my own shots
Thank you
[Bridge]
Got my own mind
I wanna make my own decisions
When it has to do with my life, my life
I wanna be the one in control
[Verse 3]
So let me take you by the hand, and lead you in this dance
Control
It's what I got, because I took a chance
I don't wanna rule the world, just wanna run my life
Ooh
So make your life a little easier
When you get the chance, just take
[Chorus]
Control
Now I got a lot
Control
To get what I want
Control
Never gonna stop
Control
Now I'm all grown up
Oooh
[Interlude]
Eeee
Now control this
Control
That's nice
Come here boys
I do what's right for me
And we want to groove, is that ok?
Ooh
Control
[Bridge 2]
I’ve got my own mind
Ooh baby
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
I’ve got my own mind
Wanna make my own decisions
When it has to do with my life
I wanna be the one in control
[Outro]
Hop to it
I'm in control
And I love it
Hahaha, that’s right
Control
Now I got a lot
Control
Now I'm all grown up
I'm in control
I'm in control
I’m in control
Don't make me lose it
