I ain't no sheriff
No secret police
What's done in private
I don't want to see
Don't stick my nose
Where I'm not welcomed
It's part of my job
A matter of love
Don't mean to pry
Don't mean to intrude
But it's my busniess
To watch over you
I'm sure no saint
And I ain't no judge
We need each other
To walk thru this mud
I know the devil
He likes secret lives
You need some good friends
To help you stay wise
So when question
Don't ask me not too
'Cause it's my business
To watch over you

It's my business to see that you're doin' fine
It's my business to keep you between lines
I'm just doin' what the Lord says to do
I hope your business is watchin' me too

I ain't no sheriff
No secret police
What's done in private
I don't want to see
I know the devil
He likes secret lives
You need some good friends
To help you stay wise
Don't mean to pry
Don't mean to intrude
But it's my busniess
To watch over you

It's my business to see that you're doin' fine
It's my business to keep you between lines
I'm just doin' what the Lord says to do
I hope your business is watchin' me too
