They are performed as moderate-tempo blues and have an extended sixteen-bar introduction:[2] {{poemquote|There ain't nothin' I can do nor nothin' I can say, that folks don't criticize me But I'm gonna do just as I want to anyway, I don't care if they all despise me}} The remaining verses are eight bars in length, with the first four describing a situation, such as "If I go to church on Sunday, then cabaret on Monday", and the last four concluding with the refrain "Tain't nobody's biz-ness if I do".[2] The song's eight-bar chord scheme was a model for subsequent "bluesy" Tin Pan Alley songs and R&B ballads in an AABA form. [6] The music and lyrics are usually credited to two pianists – Porter Grainger, who had been Bessie Smith's accompanist from 1924 to 1928, and Everett Robbins, who had his own bands and worked briefly with Mamie Smith.[1][2][3][4] Clarence Williams, who played the piano on Bessie Smith's recording, is sometimes listed as a co-author of the song.[7]BMI, the performing rights organization, lists Grainger, Williams, Witherspoon, and Robert Prince.[8] The original lyrics were copyrighted in 1922 and are now in the public domain.[9] Recordings and releasesAnna Meyers recorded "'Tain't Nobody's Biz-ness if I Do" on October 19, 1922, in New York City,[10] backed by the Original Memphis Five.[10] The song was released as a ten-inch 78-rpm single on Pathé Actuelle for the US market by the French-based Pathé Records. Other early recordings include those by Sara Martin (with Fats Waller on piano),[11] Alberta Hunter,[12] and Bessie Smith.[13] In Smith's version, the lyrics also mention an abusive partner: {{poemquote|I'd rather my man would hit me, than to jump right up and quit me ... I swear I won't call no copper, if I'm beat up by my papa Tain't nobody's business if I do}} In 1928, a country blues rendition was recorded by Memphis, Tennessee, singer-guitarist Frank Stokes.[1] His finger-style acoustic guitar version uses a simple I-IV-V chord progression and different lyrics, including the refrain "It ain't nobody's business but mine". In the post–World War II blues era, the jump blues singer Jimmy Witherspoon revived the song as "Ain't Nobody's Business".[4] He performed it in the West Coast blues style with understated backing by piano, guitar, bass, drums, and a three-piece horn section.[5] The song was recorded in Los Angeles on November 15, 1947, and released by Supreme Records in September 1948.[5] It entered the record chart on March 5, 1949, and reached number one.[14] Witherspoon's song was the best-selling R&B record of 1949.[5] Recognition and influenceIn 2011, Witherspoon's "Ain't Nobody's Business" was inducted into the Blues Foundation Hall of Fame.[4] According to the Foundation, "its message continued to resonate, as borne out by the remarkable success of Witherspoon's two-part rendition, which remained on the Billboard 'race records' charts for 34 weeks. It was rated No. 3 in all-time chart longevity in Joel Whitburn's Top R&B Singles 1942–1988."[4] His rendition also inspired numerous artists to record adaptations of the song,[1] usually with variations in the music and lyrics, including[15] versions by Cher, Ardis, James Booker, Eric Clapton, Sam Cooke, Mary Coughlan, Billie Holiday, Mississippi John Hurt, B.B. King, Freddie King, Willie Nelson, Diana Ross (for the film Lady Sings the Blues), Otis Spann, Taj Mahal, Susan Tedeschi, Dinah Washington, Bobby "Blue" Bland, Little Milton, Nell Carter and Wingnut Dishwashers Union. A version by Hank Williams, Jr. peaked at number 15 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in 1990.[16] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite encyclopedia| last = Herzhaft| first = Gerard| encyclopedia = Encyclopedia of the Blues| section = Ain't Nobody's Business| year = 1992| location = Fayetteville, Arkansas| publisher = University of Arkansas Press| isbn = 1-55728-252-8| page = 436}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite book| title = The Blues| section = "Tain't Nobody's Biz-ness if I Do"| year = 1995| location = Milwaukee, Wisconsin| publisher = Hal Leonard| isbn = 0-79355-259-1| pages = 210–212}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite book| last = Kostelanetz| first = Richard| authorlink = Richard Kostelanetz| title = The B.B.
