Your Own Drum

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 how 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 how 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 how you want to
You can walk to the rhythm that lights you up
To the beat, to the beat of the your own drum
