Nobody's Business Lyrics


I went out in the darkness
Just searching for someplace to be
Wasn't looking for trouble
I guess it was looking for meAnd I knew I was wasting my time
But it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mineI was taking some comfort
I needed a break from the rain
I guess I was mistaken
And someone remembered my nameBut I knew I was doin' just fine
And it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mineWell I guess for some revenge is sweet
Though it be once removed
I hope you feel better
I don't know what you provedWell, yonder comes the emperor, boys
He sure looks fine in blue
I hope you feel better, babe
I know you're scared tooWell, it sure makes you wonder
The things that some people will say

They can see black and white but they
Don't seem to notice the grayWhat a price for a victimless crime
When it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mine
Yeah, it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mineWell, it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mine
Oh mine
Nobody's business but mine

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Don Henley (born Donald Hugh Henley in Gilmer, Texas, USA on 22 July 1947) is drummer, singer, and songwriter with the band Eagles. Since the 80s he has had a successful solo career and has played a founding role in several causes.

In 1970, he moved to Los Angeles to record an album with his early band, Shiloh. Shiloh's album was produced by fellow Texan Kenny Rogers. Shortly thereafter, Henley met Glenn Frey. They both became members of Linda Ronstadt's backup band. Touring with her was the catalyst for forming the group. As a result, two months later they, along with Bernie Leadon and Randy Meisner, became their own act, Eagles.

Henley's music is often social commentary. One of his more famous songs is "Dirty Laundry" (from his I Can't Stand Still album, released in 1982). Its origins date back to 1980, when Henley was put on probation for possession of a narcotic and fined for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. The ensuing media circus and on-air pundits claiming that his career was over led to the writing of the song, which continues to be an indictment against the broadcast news media. Similarly, "Johhny Can't Read" (also from the Can't Stand Still album), continues to resound as a commentary on the educational system.
