(originally by Hank Williams Sr.)

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 a nosy 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

Well, 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 business?
Mind your own business
Well, if you mind your business
Then you sure won't be mindin' mine

If I wanna 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
'Cause 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
'Cause if you mind your business
You'll stay busy all the time
