In the Good Old Summertime - I Don't Care Songtexte

They say I'm crazy, got no sense, but I don't care.
They may or may not mean offense,
but I don't care.
You see, I'm sort of independent.
I am my own superintendent.
And my star is on the ascendent,
that's why I don't care.
I don't care, I don't care
What they may think of me.
I'm happy-go-lucky,
they say that I'm plucky.
Content and carefree.
I don't care, don't care
If I do get a mean and stony stare.
If I'm not successful
It won't be distressful
'Cause I don't care.
A girl should know her etiquette.
Alas, alack.
Propriety demands we walk a narrow track.
When fellas used to blink at me,
I'd freeze 'em and they'd shrink at me.
But now when fellas wink at me,
I wink at them right back!
I don't care, I don't care
If people frown on me.
Perhaps it's the lone way,
But I go my own way,
That's my philosophy.
I don't care, I don't care
If he's clerk or just a millionaire.
There's no doubt about it,
I'll sing and I'll shout it,
'Cause I don't care.
Oh, I don't care, I don't care.
When it comes to happiness,
I want my share.
Don't try to rearrange me,
There's nothing can change me
'Cause I don't care.
