Well, every time that I come home
nobody want's to leave me be,
it seems that all the friends I've got
just got to come interrogate me.
Well, I appreciate your feelings
and I don't want to pass you by
but I don' t ask you 'bout your business,
don't ask me about mine.

Well, it's true I love the money
and I love my brand new car,
I like drinkin' the best of whiskey
and playin' in a honky tonk bar.
But when I come off the road,
well, I just gotta have my time
'cause I gotta find a break in this action,
else I'm gonna lose my mind.

   So don't ask me no questions
   and I won't tell you no lies.
   So don't ask me 'bout my business
   and I won't tell you goodbye.

Well, what's you favorite color and do you dig the Brothers
drivin' me up the wall
and every time I think I can sleep
some fool has got to call.
Well, don't you think that when I come home
I just want a little peace of mind?
If you want to talk about the business,
buddy, you're just wasting time.

   So don't ask me no questions
   and I won't tell you no lies.
   So don't ask me 'bout my business
   and I won't tell you goodbye.

   So don't ask no stupid questions
   and I won't send you away.
   If you want to talk fishin',
   well, I guess that'll be OK.
