[Verse 1]
You don't own me
I'm not just one of your little toys
You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys

[Chorus 1]
Don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
Please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display

[Verse 2]
You don't own me
Don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me
Don't tie me down cause I'll never stay

[Chorus 2]
I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you

[Post-Chorus]
I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please
Oh‚ Ooh
[Chorus 1]
Don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
And please‚ when I go out with you
Don't put me on display

[Chorus 2]
I'm young‚ don't tell me what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you

[Post-Chorus]
I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please
Oh, Ooh

[Outro]
You don't own me
