Back and forth inside my mind Like an old porch swing goes side to side My head don't know where to go
I'm trying to find where I belong I feel it lies inside a song 'Cause my heart knows where to go
Like a melody It sings to me You can say, you can say what you want to You can do, you can do what you really love
To the beat, to the beat of the your own drum You can feel, you can feel what you want to You can walk to the rhythm that lights you up
To the beat, to the beat of the your own drum If you wanna join the cheerlead squad And date the star football heartthrob with a promise ring
Do your thing Or if you wanna write your life in a song And play onstage while the crowd sings along Let it ring
'Cause that's your thing It's a melody We all sing
You can say, you can say what you want to You can do, you can do what you really love To the beat, to the beat of the your own drum You can feel, you can feel what you want to You can walk to the rhythm that lights you up
To the beat, to the beat of the your own drum To the beat, to the beat, to the beat To the beat, to the beat, to the beat To the beat, to the beat, to the beat
Of the your own drum To the beat, to the beat, to the beat To the beat, to the beat, to the beat To the beat, to the beat, to the beat Yeah
You can say, you can say what you want to You can do, you can do what you really love To the beat, to the beat of the your own drum You can say, you can say what you want to You can do, you can do what you really love
To the beat, to the beat of the your own drum You can feel, you can feel what you want to You can walk to the rhythm that lights you up To the beat, to the beat of the your own drum
