[Verse 1]

Sick and tired of gettin' older

I keep getting lost tryin' to find my way

Lookin' for love in every corner

Night after night

But every street light looks the same


[Pre-Chorus]

So I'm takin' the chance, walkin' away, breakin' the rules

Nobody here can tell me what to do


[Chorus]

I'm out on my own, makin' my way

Tryin' to be someone that I can be proud of one day

I'm out on my own, doing it my way


[Verse 2]

I gotta be tough, gotta be stronger

And take the time to understand

This city can't get any colder

Stab you in the back

While shakin' your hand


[Pre-Chorus]

So I'm takin' the chance, walkin' away, breakin' the rules

Nobody here can tell me what to do


[Chorus]

I'm out on my own, makin' my way

Tryin' to be someone that I can be proud of one day

I'm out on my own, doing it my way

Doing it my own way, yeah (Oh)


[Pre-Chorus]

I'm takin' the chance, walkin' away, breakin' the rules

Nobody here can tell me what to do


[Chorus]

I'm out on my own, makin' my way

Tryin' to be someone that I can be proud of one day

I'm out on my own, doing it my way

Doing it my way

Doing it my own way
