Definitely *not* the same song. Compare, for example, Bessie Smith's "'Tain't Nobody's Bizness If I Do" to MJH's "Nobody's Business But My Own" (esp. the version from the 1928 sessions, much darker than the version played on RP).
From Wiki:
It was published in 1922 by Porter Grainger and Everett Robbins.
One of the original blues standards...

How marvelous the radiostation that sees fit to play these gems
THANK YOU RP

I've always loved Kids in the Hall, and Mississippi Gary is a funny character, but there's something about that sketch that didn't age so well.
just remembered this skit from Kids in the Hall. Kathy with a K and Mississisipppi Gary: https://youtu.be/ZN3oLwpEwus

Pretty cool. Did the same sort of thing about 15 years ago during a visit to Memphis. Crossed the river into Arkansas and found Albert Kind's grave in a field full of them. He had a marker that was as long as he was tall.
Albert King?

Candy is dandy,
But liquor is quicker.
You can drink all the liquor,
Down in Costa Ricor.

One of the funnest trips I ever took was to find MJH's grave outside Greenwood in the arly 90s. Grave up in the woods on a bluff at the very edge of the Delta. In the middle of nowhere, but somehow we found it. I believe at this point someone, finally, put a marker there or nearby.

One of the great, great blues artists.

He was such a good guitar player.
My mother would play this song on her guitar when I was a child, nothing reminds me more of home than hearing this song.

Nice enough, but Taj's version just seems to fit better.
Hey, just a crazy question: did Mississippi John Hurt ever meet the actor John Hurt?
hearing John Prine too
Very great song ! Could anybody (R or B) put the lyrics online ?
This is really nice
Taj Mahal does a nice cover of this.

That's pure Americana. And great picking.
