I don't want nobody telling me what to do
I don't want nobody telling me what to do
Oh I'm gonna leave you darlin', 'cause I'm just as grown as you
I don't want nobody telling me this and that
I don't want nobody telling me this and that
Oh I'm gonna leave you darling, 'cause I don't go for that
You drink your whiskey, I'll drink my wine
You tend to your business and I'll tend to mine
I don't want nobody telling me how to live my life
Oh I'm gonna leave you darling, just don't want to be your wife
Well you used to boss your girl, that I won't deny
Before I let you boss me I'm gonna lay down and die
I don't want nobody telling me what to do
I don't want nobody telling me what to do
Oh I'm gonna leave you darlin', 'cause I'm just as grown as you
