Mind your own business...
Words and music by Hank Williams, Sr. If the [D] wife and I are fussin', brother that's our right 'Cause me and that sweet woman's got a license to fight [D7] Why don't you [G7] mind your own business (Mind [D] your own business) 'Cause if you mind [A7] your business, then you won't be mindin' [D] 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. |

This is so relaxing.
I've been listening all day long in my office, and all night on very low volume while I'm sleeping. Unlike other lofi auto-plays, this one stays on character and never plays something outside of a mellow range-- slightly relaxing/ slightly energetic. No piano music, classical guitar, hip-hop with vocals, just lofi. |

I wish it was high res. but the music is high res. |
Lots of Americans have heard the Tracey Ullman version of this song, but only our Brits have heard the original, from the late great great great great Kirsty MacColl. She was only 16 when she wrote this song. I love the high pitched "baby!" at the end of the bridge. I read that Tracey Ullman could not reach that note, and the "baby!" on her version was only reached through studio trickery - which in 1983 meant she recorded a "baby!" at a lower pitch, separately, and they sped it up and stuck it into the middle there. That's what they had to do, before autotune. |
MacColl married a guy named Steve Lillywhite. I wonder how much harassment and grief that name brought him. :rolleyes:

He survived it well because he became one of the greatest record producers of all tiiiiime
He produced the first three U2 albums He produced Peter Gabriel "3" and developed (along with Phil Collins) the drum sound that would represent the entire 80s He helped kicked off the careers of Psychedelic Furs, XTC, Ultravox, Pogues, Thompson Twins, Simple Minds, Big Country Did later work with the Stones Tolerated Morrissey for parts of his solo career More recently Dave Matthews And he made some great records with Kirsty. In which she does, like 6-part harmony in places, it's quite good stuff |
Sorry, I went off... but... he really is quite good at making records
|
No problem, he's had a great career, made major money, probably got some impressive autographs. ;)
Plus if that wasn't enough he looks like a damn male model. I guess it's true, with a name like |
Love that cut Toad.
I just have to add that Kirtsy's voice is amazing. |
I'm going to hell for this video... :blush:

I'm not sure I know what that was...

I been likin dis lately: White House Road Early in the morning when the sun does rise Layin' in the bed with bloodshot eyes Late in the evenin' when the sun sinks low Well that's about time my rooster crows I got women up and down this creek And they keep me going and my engine clean Run me ragged but I don't fret 'Cause there ain't been one slow me down none yet Get me drinking' that moonshine Get me higher than the grocery bill Take my troubles to the highwall Throw'em in the river and get your fill We been sniffing that cocaine Ain't nothin' better when the wind cuts cold Lord it's a mighty hard livin' But a damn good feelin' to run these roads I got people try to tell me, Red Keep this livin' and you'll wind up dead Cast your troubles on the Lord of Lord's Or wind up laying on a coolin' board But I got buddies up White House Road And they keep me strutting when my feet hang low Rotgut whiskey gonna ease my pain And all this running's gonna keep me sane Get me drinkin' that moonshine Get me higher than the grocery bill Take my troubles to the highwall Throw'em in the river and get your fill We been sniffing that cocaine Ain't nothin' better when the wind cuts cold Lord it's a mighty hard livin' But a damn good feelin' to run these roads It's a damn good feelin' to run these roads When you lay me in the cold hard clay Won't ya sing them hymns while the banjo plays You can tell them ladies that they ought not frown 'Cause there ain't been nothing ever held me down Lawmen, women or a shallow grave Same ol' blues just a different day Get me drinking' that moonshine Get me higher than the grocery bill Take my troubles to the highwall Throw'em in the river and get your fill We been sniffing that cocaine Ain't nothin' better when the wind cuts cold Lord it's a mighty hard livin' But a damn good feelin' to run these roads It's a damn good feelin' to run these roads It's a damn good feelin' to run these roads |
