If the girl doesn't wanna stay: let her go, let her go
if the girl wants to make her way let her go, let her go
'cause I live my life the way I wanna live
and I'm not gonna give more than I wanna give
so if the girl doesn't wanna stay
well, let her go, let her go

If she thinks it's better for herself: let her go, let her go
if she thinks it's better somewhere else: let her go, let her go
'cause I live my life the way I wanna live
and I'm not gonna give more than I wanna give
so if the girl doesn't wanna stay
well, let her go, let her go

but no complaints about my friends
and no debates when I'm late
no more grunts about my funds
I do like her company just when she lets me free
'cos I live my life the way that I just want it to be lived
and I'm not gonna give more than my baby's wanting me to give
so if the girl doesn't wanna stay: let her go
