Verse 2:

	There'll be women and their fortunes
	Who just love to mother orphans
	Are you gonna cry, when I'm squeezin' 'em dry
	Takin' all I can get, no regrets
	When I...
	Openly lie
	And leave only money
	Believe me honey, that money
	Can you believe, I ain't no saint
	Who complains
	So girl cut out
	Any doubt
	But baby (but baby)
	Remember (remember)

[repeat chorus]

	  C       Dm           F          G
	(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) And I can do what I want
	(It's my mind and I'll think what I want) You can't tell me
	(It's my life and I'll do what I want) [fade]
