lyrics

It's nobody's business how my baby treats me
It's nobody's business but my own
It's nobody's business, nobody's business
It's nobody's business but my own.

My gal drives a Ford machine, but my money buys the gasoline
It's nobody's business but her own
It's nobody's business how my baby treats me
It's nobody's business but my own.

My gal drives a Cadillac, oh boy, she makes her jack
It's nobody's business but her own
It's nobody's business how my baby treats me
It's nobody's business but my own.
