I want my share of love, it might as well be known But I ain't thinking of one girl to love alone That ain't the way it's gonna be, I'm on my own and I am free And I've been satisfied, so I don't wanna be tied Somebody's loving arms can sure be sweet I've found But I want no-one's arms to ever hold me down Once I get caught inside a net, I'm gonna run I bet I'm gonna run and hide (run and hide), I don't wanna be tied (don't wanna be tied) I've seen lovers who were matched They thought that love could stay Once they cared and got attached It seems that love just slipped away Don't want no claims on me (don't wanna be tied) Don't want no chains that bind (don't wanna be tied) As anyone could see (don't wanna be tied) I say what's on my mind (don't wanna be tied) Well there ain't nothing I conceal I'm gonna play the field The field of love is wide (field of love is wide) I don't wanna be tied (don't wanna be tied) The field of love is wide (field of love is wide) I don't wanna be tied (don't wanna be tied) The field of love is wide (field of love is wide) I don't wanna be tied I said I don't, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be tied (don't wanna be tied)
