Tain’t Nobody’s Business If I Do Songtext
von Fats Waller

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 just what people say
If I should take a notion
To jump into the ocean

Ain't nobody′s business if I do
If I go to church on sunday
Then cabaret all day monday
Ain′t nobody's business if I do


If my man ain′t got no money
And I say "take all mine, honey"
Ain't nobody′s business if I do
If I give him my last nickel

And it leaves me in a pickle
Ain't nobody′s business if I do
But I'd rather my man would hit me
Than follow him to jump up and quit me

Ain't nobody′s business if I do
I swear I won′t call no copper
If I'm beat up by my papa
Ain′t nobody's business if I do

Nobody′s business
Ain't nobody′s business
Nobody's business if I do
