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

Oh 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 busines

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

[ guitar ]

I got a little gal that wears her hair up high the boys all whistle when she walks by

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

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

If I wanna honky tonk around the two or three

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

Just you mind your own business mind your own business

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

[ steel ]

Mindin' other people's business seems to be hightone

I got all that I can do just mind my own

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

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