LYRICS:

Got a call from an old friend we used to be real close
said he couldnt go on the american way
closed the shop sold a house baught a ticket to the west coast
now he gives them a stand-up routine in LA

I don't need you to worry for me cos im alright
i don't want you to tell me its time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
go ahead with your own life leave me alone

I never said you had to offer me a second chance
i never said i was a victim of circumstance
i stil belong, dont get me wrong
you can speak your mind but not on my time

They will tell you you cant sleep alone in a strange place
then they'll tell you you cant sleep with somebody else
oh but sooner or later you sleep in your own space
either way its ok you wake up with yourself

I don't need you to worry for me cos im alright
i don't want you to tell me its time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
go ahead with your own life leave me alone

I never said you had to offer me a second chance
i never said i was a victim of circumstance
i stil belong, dont get me wrong
you can speak your mind but not on my time

I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
go ahead with your own life leave me alone

I jammed to this early this morning on my way in to work!! I was like 5 years old when this came out! Always heard it in my house so I've always loved it! Now that I'm grown I can really appreciate it more!Timeless sound!

If this song is the single verion, then my store players the full version because the version that plays in my grocery store doesn't sing this part 1:13-1:43 instead, it only plays a small instrumental part.

[Danny Eyheralde]

which version does your grocery store play? this oone (the single) or the full version?

[CaptAUGseome]

Rude....

[Truckteacher]

Shut up and enjoy the song!!!
