This is a song about getting the tables turned on you. She treated him like a toy; one of many, depending on her mood. But now that he’s gone, she realizes what she’s lost.
Yes, I'm lonely - hope you don't catch it
Don't want to be down where I last behaved
I broke his heart now I cannot patch it
This time it's grave
I kept track of all the love that I gave him
And on paper, well, it looked pretty good
He left a note that said he couldn't stay here
As if I could ...
I guess my love's got no business
No business calling his name
I guess my love's got no business
No business, nobody to blame
One of these days I thought we'd get it together
After all, that boy was made for me
But all he left me was a mouth full of feathers
Little bird got free ...
He always said my love was one-sided
I tried to keep up with supply and demand
But there was one way that pie was divided
It was a big piece plan
I guess my love's got no business
No business calling his name
I guess my love's got no business
No business, nobody to blame
[Guitar bridge]
Now I'm gettin desperate, gettin illegal
I got them law doggies on my trail
The hawks out and I could use an eagle
To go my bail
You say you're itchin baby, so go ahead and scratch it
But if it jumps off, don't you look at me
You swore to God that I couldn't catch it
But this dog got fleas
I guess my love's got no business
No business calling his name
I guess my love's got no business
No business, nobody to blame
I guess my love's got no business
No business calling his name
I guess my love's got no business
No business, nobody to blame
