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)

I said mind your own business (mind your own business)

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

Now 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 business (mind your own business)

Hey mind your own business (mind your own business)

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

[ harmonica ]

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

The fellers all whistle when she walks by

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

Yeah mind your own business (mind your own business)

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

If I wanna honky tonkin' round till two or three

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

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

Hey mind your own business (mind your own business)

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

[ organ ]

Well I tell a lot of stories that may not be true

But I can get to heaven just as quick as you

So mind your own business (mind your own business)

Hey mind your own business (mind your own business)

Cause 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 business (mind your own business)

Hey mind your own business (mind your own business)

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