What It Takes

[Verse 1]
I wanna walk
To no particular destination
I wanna talk
When I got the inclination
I wanna move
When I got the locomotion
I'm gonna do just what it takes
To keep this smile on my face
I wanna drive my car
Wherever they're driving faster
I wanna sail the ship
As long as I can be the master
I wanna ride the rails
On my own roller coaster
I'm gonna do just what it takes
To keep this smile on my face

[Chorus]
I was born to be this way
Never save for a rainy day
I just like to make it my own way
And I wanna be the first to say

[Verse 2]
Don't wanna work real hard
If it means that I ain't livin'
Don't wanna go through life
If there's no room for gettin'
Don't wanna stand here long
If it just means I'm waiting
I'm gonna do just what it takes
To keep this smile on my face

[Chorus]
I was born to be this way
Never save for a rainy day
I just like to make it my own way
And I wanna be the first to say

[Verse 3]
Don't wanna change my ways
If there ain't no good reason
Don't wanna change my mind
Without any rhyme or reason
Don't wanna be one way
I got to change like the seasons
And I'm gonna do just what it takes
To keep this smile on my face
I'm gonna do just what it takes
To keep this smile on my face
