Album: Best Of 1966-68

Monterey

It's a hard world to get a break in
All the good things have been taken
But girl there are ways
To make certain things pay
Though I'm dressed in these rags
I'll wear sable some day

Hear what I say
I'm going to ride this surf in
No more time spent sweating rent
Hear my command?
I'm breakin' loose...it ain't no use
Holdin' me downÚFFFF85stickin' around
But baby, baby, remember, rememberÚFFFF85
It's my life and I'll do what I want
It's my mind and I'll think what I want

Show me I'm wrong ÚFFFF85hurt me sometime
But someday I'll treat you real fine
There'll be womenÚFFFF85and their fortunes
Who'll just want to.. mother orphan's
Are you going to cry
When I'm squeezin' you right
Taking all I can getÚFFFF85no regrets
When IÚFFFF85
Open their lives
And live on their money
Believe me honey...that money
Can you believe?
I ain't no saintÚFFFF85no complaints!
So girl before IÚFFFF85????
But baby, baby, remember, rememberÚFFFF85
It's my life and I'll do what I want
It's my mind and I'll think what I want

Show me I'm wrong
Hurt me sometime
But someday I'll treat you real fine
It's my life and I'll do what I want
Don't push me!
It's my mind and I'll think what I want
It's my life!
It's my life and I'll do what I want
I can do what I want!
