[Verse 1]
Nobody can tell you
There's only one song worth singin'
They may try and sell you
'Cause it hangs them up
To see someone like you

[Chorus]
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along

[Verse 2]
You're gonna be nowhere
The loneliest kind of lonely
It may be rough going
Just to do your thing's
The hardest thing to do

[Chorus]
And make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
