LYRICS:

Mr. Independent
No I can’t stop myself from listening to no one
I am on my own now, I’m all I got
Guess I’m the only one

Take a shot
Hell, why not
I can’t read the label with the lights turned off
Every word is smoke blowing in my face, ohh oh
Radio, vertigo
Money don’t buy my attention, no
Can’t cash an empty promise at my bank

Look, I know I come off sweet but don’t test me
If I ever need permission, I’ll let me
And if I gotta be forgiven, God help me
I’ll use that tone, yeah I am grown

‘Cause I’m Mr. Independent
No I can’t stop myself from listening to no one
I am on my own now, I’m all I got
Guess I’m the only one
Mr. Independent
No I can’t leave my door wide open for no one
Big man in the black suit can’t tell me no
Guess I’m the only one

At the door, waiting for
A valet with my ride ‘cause I can’t take no more
Ain’t no pen to paper, lawyer says I’m saved
No applause, my only thought
How you walk around here and say that this your job?
Maybe listen to a song before you say it’s all the same
Look, I know I come off sweet but don’t test me
I can hit it right back atcha, don’t tempt me
And if I gotta be forgiven, God help me
I’ll use that tone, yeah I am grown

‘Cause I’m Mr. Independent
No I can’t stop myself from listening to no one
I am on my own now, I’m all I got
Guess I’m the only one
Mr. Independent
No I can’t leave my door wide open for no one
Big man in the black suit can’t tell me no
Guess I’m the only one

Mr. Inde-pen-dent
Mr. Inde-pen-dent
Mr. Inde-pen-dent
No

Oh Mr. Independent
No I can’t stop myself from listening to no one
I am on my own now, I’m all I got
Guess I’m the only one
Mr. Independent
No I can’t leave my door wide open for no one
Big man in the black suit can’t tell me no
Guess I’m the only one

Mr. Inde-pen-dent
