I won't stand in her way
Spread her wings and she'll fly
You know it's hard to be free
When you slave to get by

This time I ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again
She wants to be her own kinda woman now
Why baby?

I don't care what she says
Ain't no love when you're poor
I can't get to my bed
She won't unlock the door

This time I ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again
She wants to be her own kinda woman now
Why baby?

On my way I roll on
Wipe the dust off my shoes
Greyhound bus run 'til dawn
Flower child dust my blues

This time I ain't gonna let it get me down
It ain't too late to start again
When she's checking in, I'll be checking out
I'm going to find myself another friend
She wants to be her own kinda woman now
Why baby?
