If the wife and I are fussin' brother that's our right

Cause me and that sweet woman's got a licence to fight

Why don't you mind your own business mind your own business

Cause if you mind your own business then you won't be mindin' mine

On the woman on our party line's a nosey thing

She picks up her receiver when she knows it's my ring

Why don't you mind your own businesss mind your own business

So if you mind your own business then you won't be mindin' mine

Well I got a little gal that wears her hair up high

The boys all whistle out every time she walks by

Why don't you mind your own businesss mind your own business

For if you mind your own business then you won't be mindin' mine

[ guitar ]

If I wanna honky tonk around till two or three

Brother that's my headache don't you worry bout me

Why don't you mind your own businesss mind your own business

So if you mind your own business then you won't be mindin' mine

Mindin' other people's business seems to be hightone

But I got all that I can do just midin' my own

Why don't you mind your own businesss mind your own business

For if you mind your own business then you won't be mindin' mine

For if you mind your own business you'll stay busy all the time
