There ain't nothin' I can do
 Or nothing I can say
 That folks don't criticize me
 But I'm gonna do what I want to anyway
 And I don't care just what people say

 If I should take a notion to jump into the ocean
 'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do

 If I go to church on sunday then cabaret all day monday
 'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do

 If my man ain't got no money and I say take all mine honey
 'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do

 If I give him my last nickle and it leaves me in a pickle
 'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do

 I'd rather my man would hit me than for him to jump up and quit me
 'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do

 I swear I won't call no coppa if I'm beat up by my poppa
 'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do

 Nobody's bizness, ain't nobody's bizness
 Nobody's biznes if I do
