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
