Classic Country Lyrics: "Mind Your Own Business" von Hank Williams

Nachdem ihn eine Journalistin mit etwas zu frechen
Fragen genervt hatte, schrieb Hank Williams die-
sen Song, den er noch am selben Abend erstmals
live auf der Bühne präsentierte und während des
Songs immerzu genau jene sich auch im Publikum
befindende Journalistin anblickte.

If the wife and I are fussin', brother that's our right
'Cause me and that sweet woman's got a license to fight 
Why don't you mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
'Cause if you mind your business, then you won't be 
mindin' mine.

Oh, the woman on our party line's the nosiest thing
She picks up her receiver when she knows it's my ring
Why don't you mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
Well, if you mind your business, then you won't be 
mindin' mine.

I got a little gal that wears her hair up high, 
the boys all whistle when she walks by.
why don't you mind your own buisness 
(Mind your own business)
Well, if you mind your own business, you sure won't be 
minding mine.

If I want to honky tonk around 'til two or three
Now, brother that's my headache, don't you worry 'bout 
me.
Just mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
If you mind your business, then you won't be mindin' 
mine. 

Mindin' other people's business seems to be high-toned
I got all that I can do just to mind my own
Why don't you mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
If you mind your own business, you'll stay busy all the 
time.
