Makin' it hard on each other Makin' it hard on yourself Makin' it hard on me Makin' it hard on you It's all the same I'm not the one to tell you what to do I have no desire to run your life Do your thing, you know what to do Just don't let nobody tell you no lies Could we retire to a neutral corner? 'Cause I'd like a chance to make myself clear You know, I'm still your friend, I've got a few things to say And I'd like to think that you might want to hear I'm not the one to tell you what to do I have no desire to run your life Do your thing, you know what to do Just don't let nobody tell you no lies I'm not the one to tell you what to do I have no desire to run your life (I never did) Do your thing, you know what to do (And you know you do) Just don't let nobody tell you no lies Blind, stubborn pride drove us apart Can't you see the place we went wrong? You hide in your world and I'll get lost in mine All we got left is a song I'm not the one to tell you what to do I have no desire to run your life Do your thing, you know what to do Just don't let nobody tell you no lies When you decide that you'd like to know What it is that makes a person go When you decide that you believe and you're trustin' Let somebody open up your soul, oh, yes I'm not the one to tell you what to do I have no desire to run your life (And you know I can't) Do your thing, you know what to do Just don't let nobody tell you no lies I'm not the one to tell you what to do I have no desire to run your life Do your thing, you know what to do Just don't let nobody tell you no lies
