Nobody's Dirty Business Lyrics

If I can, if I can

'Fore day, 'for day
Baby, I did all I could do, an' I

Well, and I ain't got no rabbit dog

Baby, did all I can do, and I can't get along with you
I'm gon'

John Smith Hurt, better known as Mississippi John Hurt (July 3, 1893 or March 8, 1892 - November 2, 1966) was an American country blues singer and guitarist. Raised in Avalon, Mississippi, Hurt taught himself how to play the guitar around age nine. Singing to a melodious finger-picked accompaniment, he began to play local dances and parties while working as a sharecropper. He first recorded for Okeh Records in 1928, but these were commercial failures.
