Nobody can tell you there's only one song worth singing
They may try and sell ya
'Cause it hangs them up to see someone like you
But you gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along

You're gonna be nowhere
The lonliest kind of lonley
It may be rough going
'Cause to do your thing is the hardest thing to do

You gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along

So if you cannot take my hand
And if you must be goin'
I will understand

You gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along

You gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
