She was nine years old when I first met her She didn't dress like anyone When she ran in a race the boys couldn't catch her I stood back and let her run I used to walk her home after school Every chance that I could I'd say to her, "You're not like the other girls" And she'd say, "Good" She's got a mind of her own She don't care what they say They can tell her she won't But she will anyway She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me The world turned and ten years later I was playin' in a band She was chasin' an education College boys beggin' for her hand I used to call her late at night Every chance that I could I'd say to her, "I can't get you out of my mind" And she'd say, "Good" She's got a mind of her own She don't care what they say They can tell her she won't But she will anyway She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me Now, here we are, a few turns later She still don't dress like anyone People say she's got no limits I stand back and let her run 'Cause when the lights go out at night What we're feelin' is understood I'd say to her, "You're not like the other girls" And she says, "Good" She's got a mind of her own She don't care what they say They can tell her she won't But she will anyway She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me They can tell her she won't But she will anyway She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me Her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own Her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own
