[Verse 1]

You don't own me

I'm not just one of your many toys

You don't own me

Don't say I can't go with other boys

[Chorus]

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 'cause

[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'd never stay

You don't own me

I'm not just one of your many toys

You don't own me

Don't say I can't go with other boys

[Chorus]

Don't tell you what to say

And don't tell you what to do

Please, when I go out with you

Don't put me on display 'cause

[Pre-Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

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

[Outro]

Hey, hey (You don't own me)

Ooh, no, ooh-no-no, uh (You don't own me)

No, no, no, don't, you don't

Hey (You don't own me)

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no (You don't own me)

(You don't own me)
