An Occasional Man |
Ain’t nobody’s business what I do Get me a shotgun and shoot my baby |
Ain’t nobody’s business if I do |
There ain’t nothing I can do, or nothing I can say, |
Some folks will criticize me. |
So I’m gonna do just what I want to anyway, |
And don’t care if you all despise me. |
If I should take a notion |
To jump into the ocean, |
It ain’t nobody’s business if I do. |
If I go to church on Sunday |
And I shimmy down on Monday, |
It ain’t nobody’s business if I do. |
And if my friend ain’t got no money |
And I say, «All right, take all of mine honey,» |
It ain’t nobody’s business if I do. |
If I lend her my last nickel |
And it leaves me in a pickle, |
It ain’t nobody’s business if I do. |
I would rather my gal would hit me Than to haul right up and quit me. |
It ain’t nobody’s business if I do. |
I know that she won’t call no copper |
If she gets beat up by her poppa. |
It ain’t nobody’s business if I do, Lord no. |
Well, it ain’t nobody’s business if I do. |
