Bessie Smith lyrics

'T Ain't Nobody's Bizness If I Do blues lyrics

There ain't nothing I can do, or nothing I can say
That folks don't criticize me
But I'm goin' 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 bizness if I do, do, do do
If I go to church on Sunday
Sing the shimmy down on Monday
Ain't nobody's bizness 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 poppa
'T ain't nobody's bizness if I do, if I do
