A bit more variation with a gender bent song.
This song was a hit with Billy Holiday, a few decades ago.
Just in case more details are enjoyed,..
"Ain't Nobody's Business" (originally "Tain't Nobody's Biz-ness if I Do")
is a 1920s blues song that became one of the first blues standards
It was published in 1922 by Porter Grainger and Everett Robbins.
The song features a lyrical theme of freedom of choice and
a vaudeville jazz–style musical arrangement.
It was first recorded, as "'Tain't Nobody's Biz-ness if I Do", in 1922
by Anna Meyers, backed by the Original Memphis Five.

@qwirky A little background on her...The studio would call her telling her when they were expecting her for her next recording. But! She'd tell them she'd pick her own time, because she was presently on holiday! Well, that's a little known fact that I'm happy to share and make up. Your recording is superb and unexpected. Did you think this was Cohen song? Well, it's not my business now is it! You've truly done a great job with this song!

@jerry It could have been but he wasn't born yet. Just had minding my own business on the mind and to do what I felt like doing. BTW, I have Holidays in my tree. Everybody needs some Holidays. Thank you Jerry.
