Lyrics
I don't want nobody
Nobody hanging around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want nobody
Nobody hanging around my house when my woman all alone
Milkman, don't bring no milk
Mailman, don't bring no mail
Yard man, don't call my home
I don't want nobody here while I'm gone
Garbage man, leave my garbage alone
Just let it lay there and stink 'til I get home
'Til I get home
I don't want nobody
Nobody hanging around my house when I'm not at home (nobody)
I don't need no bill collectors always hanging around
When my woman home alone and I'm out of town
I don't need no dog catchers walking around my door
What they trying to catch, man, you would never know
Don't need the preacher, coming by when you're by yourself
If he wants some chicken, let him get it from somewhere else, yeah, yeah
I don't want nobody
Nobody hanging around my house when you're all alone (nobody)
I don't want nobody
Nobody hanging around my house when I'm not at home (nobody)
Don't want no firemen hanging around
If my house catch on fire, let the sucker burn down
Don't want no cable man hanging around my door
What they're trying to cut off or on, you would never know
If my lights get cut off while I'm gone
Just sit in the dark and wait on me 'til I get home
I don't want nobody
Nobody hanging around my house when I'm not at home (nobody)
Don't want nobody
Nobody, nobody hanging around my house when when you're all alone (nobody)
No firemen, no bill collectors
No preachers, no deacons, oh, Lord
I don't want nobody
Nobody hanging around my house when I'm not at home
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody
That means you, you and you and you, especially you
Nobody
