There ain't nothing I can do or nothing 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 if they all despise me



If I should take a notion

To jump into the ocean

'T ain't nobody's business if I do, do, do, do



If I go to church on Sunday

Sing the shimmy down on Monday

Ain't nobody's business if I do, if I do



If my friend ain't got no money

And I say, "Take all mine honey"

'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do, do, do, do



If I give him my last nickel

And it leaves me in a pickle

'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do, if I do



There are __________ would hit me

Since _________ up and quit me

'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do, do, do, do



I swear I won't call no copper

If I'm beat up by my papa

'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do, if I do
