- Songwriters: Earl King Johnson
Your mama and your papa, sister and your brother
Friends across the street and a whole lot of others
They don't wanna see me with you
No, they don't wanna see me with you
They need to tend to their business
Oho, and I'll tend to mine
And everything will be real fine
I went to a jeweler, bought an engagement ring
Your mama took one look at it and said
"Where did he get that thing?"
They don't wanna see me with you
No, they don't wanna see me with you
They need to tend to their business
Oho, and I'll tend to mine
And everything will be real fine
Oh, say your business son
Oh, get in the alley now
Your papa told your brother
"There's a job to be done, son
Go get my gun, we gonna make this joker run"
They don't wanna see me with you
No, they don't wanna see me with you
They ought to tend to their business
Oho, and I'll tend to mine
And everything will be real fine
Oh, say your business now
