The world is a hungry place

And it's never satisfied

Leaving home, on your own,

Your momma she was right

Home was a crowded space,

But it sometimes gratified

Look around, freedom found, now you've gone

You don't belong to me,

I've just got to let you go

You don't belong to me,

I've just got to let you know

Your life is a precious thing,

It can never be denied

You need a job

You couldn't help but try

Home was a crowded place

And it sometimes satisfied

Turn around freedom found

Now you've gone

Baby turn back

Don't ride the highway

Oh baby good luck

When you do it your way

You don't belong to me

I've just got to let you go

You don't belong to me

I've just got to let you know

I don't belong to you

It's only an emotion away

You don't belong to me

I've just got to let you go

When there's nothing in your way

And hunger burns inside

Reaching out on your way

Lust is a hungry place,

And it's never satisfied

You need to find,

The gift of love that comes from deep inside

Your heart is a special place,

And I'm always there,

I'm always there for you

Baby turn back,

Don't ride the highway

Oh baby good luck

When you live it your way
