There aint nothing I can do, or nothing I can say,
Some folks will criticize me
So Im gonna do just what I want to anyway,
And dont care if you all despise me

If I should take a notion
To jump into the ocean,
It aint nobodys business if I do

If I go to church on sunday
And I shimmy down on monday,
It aint nobodys business if I do

And if my friend aint got no money
And I say, "all right, take all of mine honey,"
It aint nobodys business if I do

If I lend her my last nickel
And it leaves me in a pickle,
It aint nobodys business if I do

I would rather my gal would hit me
Than to haul right up and quit me
It aint nobodys business if I do

I know that she wont call no copper
If she gets beat up by her poppa
It aint nobodys business if I do, lord no
Well, it aint nobodys business if I do
