Who Cares?
George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
Who cares
If the sky cares to fall
In the sea?
Who cares
What banks fell in Yonkers
As long as you've got a kiss that conquers?
Why should I care?
Life is one long jubilee
So long as I care for you
And you care for me
Let it rain and thunder
Let a million firms go under
I am not concerned with
Stocks and bonds that I've been burned with
I love you and you love me
And that's how it will always be
And nothing else
Could ever mean a thing
Who cares what the public chatters?
Love's the only thing that matters
Who cares how history rates me
As long as your kiss intoxicates me
Why should I care?
Life is one long jubilee
As long as I care for you
And you care for me
Hey, fellas, take me home
