Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was sittin' outside in the front yard
Lawn chair, kiddie pool, just soakin' up the sun
Old man walks by and said, "We got this thing called ambition
Why don't you buy a suit and go get you some"
[Chorus]
Like he ain't got enough of his own business
Now he's got to go mindin' mine
Opportunity knocks and I miss it
It ain't no crime
It ain't no crime
If I wanna kick back and kill a little time
It ain't no crime
[Verse 2]
I was gettin' some pink in my color
Next door, a lady says, "Why you always layin' around?
Fine young man like you should be married with some children
'Stead of all these honeys runnin' in and out"
[Chorus]
Like she ain't got enough of her own business
Now she's got to go mindin' mine
I don't have a lot of kids and a missus
It ain't no crime
It ain't no crime
If I wanna kick back and steal a kiss some time
It ain't no crime
[Instrumental]
If everybody minded their own business
They'd be too busy to worry 'bout mine
If I live life the way I wanna live it
It ain't no crime
It ain't no crime
If I wanna kick back and chill or steal
A kiss from a girl, I will every time
It ain't no crime
It ain't no crime
It ain't no crime
