Ain’t Nobody’s Business

There ain't nothin' I can do or nothin' I can say
That folks don't criticize me but I'm going to do
Just as I want to anyway
And don't care just what people say

If I should take a notion to jump into the ocean
Ain't nobody's business if I do
If I go to church on Sunday, then cabaret all day Monday
Ain't nobody's business if I do

If my man ain't got no money and I say, "Take all of mine, honey"
Ain't nobody's business if I do
If I give him my last nickel and it leaves me in a pickle
Ain't nobody's business if I do

I’d rather leave my friends than listen to them no end
Ain’t nobody’s business if I do
I’m gonna live my own life, ain’t putting up with no strife
Ain’t nobody’s business if I do

Ain’t nobody's business if I do
