Intro: 4 bars (key of C, Am)

I don’t want to be you, follow the rules
Color inside the lines
I don’t want to be told, follow the road
Never neglect the signs

Some may call me a rebel
Some may call me a fool
Some may say I’m just trouble
Cause I can’t follow rules

I guess that’s me, guess that’s me
I do my own thing
So let me be, let me be
To do my own thing

If there is a challenge, I embrace it
I face it like a man
If there is a problem, I ponder it
I do the best I can

Some may call me a rebel
Some may call me a fool
Some may say I’m just trouble
Cause I can’t follow rules

I guess that’s me, guess that’s me
I do my own thing
So let me be, let me be
To do my own thing

I’ll suffer the consequence
Go ahead throw your stones
I’ll weather the hurricane
I’ll follow my own road

Interlude: 8 bars

Repeat verse 1 and pre chorus

I guess that’s me, guess that’s me
I do my own thing
So let me be, let me be
To do my own thing

To do my own thing
To do my own thing
