Sunday, August 26, 2012. Ain't Nobody's Business.Not Exactly Bessie! Here's what Bessie sings on Queen of the Blues Volume 1 (as transcribed by me so probably inaccurately transcribed):. There ain't nothing I can do. Or nothing I can say. That's folks don't criticize me. But I'm going to do just as I want to anyway. And don't care if they all despise me. If I should take a notion to jump in to the ocean t'ain't nobody's business if I do.do.do.do. If I go to church on Sunday. When they inquired why she to...
