Don't Tell Me My Mind

I'll ramble far and wide
But who knows where I'll be,
Walking down some rocky road,
Or sailing 'cross the sea?
I have no true love,
No girl to leave behind.
It's my life and I like it,
Don't tell me my mind.

Chorus:

Don't tell me my mind,
Don't tell me that I'm wrong.
Let this song be remembered
When I'm dead and gone.
Don't tell me my mind,
Don't tell me that I'm wrong.
Let this song be remembered when I'm gone.

I'll go and see this world of ours
And all its people too,
From China to America
Across the oceans blue.
I'll sing about my travels,
Good times I'll surely find.
It's my life and I like it,
Don't tell me my mind.

Chorus

You say I'm kind of foot-loose,
I'll never settle down.
But I don't want to hang around
In this old one horse town.
I've got so many things to do
And oh, so little time.
It's my life and I like it,
Don't tell me my mind.

Chorus
