Lyrics

Would ya b'lieve it
I-I don't even care
Ah-Ah! Listen!
I said I-I-I-I
(Come out this evenin')
Don't even care
(So let me tell you why this evenin')
Listen! Not enough I can say it
About the white, the blue and the red
So everybody just-a really goes scared
And I ow!
Didn't I tell you that

I-I-I-I don't even care
No, no, no, I don't
Listen! Standin' in the third line
Everybody learnin' to learn
Ain't nobody doin' fine
Let me tell you why

I-I-I-I don't even care
Don't give me no insanities
Don't give me no insanities
I know you know I don't mind
I-I-I-I don't even care
Oh I know I don't
Now listen...
Everybody's bein' big big hearted
Everybody's bein' big big hearted
An' I wonder where the rest got started
I never know they will no go started

I-I-I-I don't even care
Yes sir!
I-I-I-I don't even care
I-I-I-I don't even care
Help me!
I-I-I-I don't even care
Don't care no more!
I-I-I-I don't even care
Everybody's doin' line
in tellin' you lies
'n you want me to b'lieve it!
Everybody's tryin' to offer me somethin'
Ain't nothin' I need to need

I said
I-I-I-I don't even care
No no I don't
I-I-I-I don't even care
Now listen, now ain't that some spoon!

I-I-I-I don't even care
Could you tell me why?
What was hole?
What was hole?
I-I-I-I don't even care
What was hole is this lastin' hand
What was hole is lastin' hand
Let me tell you

I-I-I-I don't even care
Hey, you can't hold on to it
'cause it ain't gonna last!
Would you let it to me baby?
Just talkin' 'bout

I-I-I-I don't even care
You see: I don't care!
Listen! I said now
I-I-I-I don't even care
So listen, lemme tell ya
The cow used to jump over the moon!
An' I ain't jumpin' over the fence!
As I told,
It don't make no sense doin' it

I-I-I-I don't even care
That's the reason!

That's the reason!
I-I-I-I don't even care
Say, look, they thought he was a man
and the movin' wanderer was a woman
I-I-I-I don't even care
Somethin' in the mornin'
You don't care in the evenin'
I don't care at night
Is that what you believe they're tryin' to say to me
over the fifth of south life?

I-I-I-I don't even care
No good!
Talkin' 'bout
I-I-I-I don't even care
No I don't! I don't care!
Sayin' that
I-I-I-I don't even care
I-I-I-I don't even care
Somebody been holdin' me this evenin'
I-I-I-I don't even care
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
Hold me tight this evenin' 'cause
I-I-I-I don't even care

Notes About This Song

The line "the cow used to jump over the moon" is a reference to a line from the English nursery rhyme "Hey Diddle Diddle":

Hey diddle diddle,

The cat and the fiddle,

The cow jumped over the moon,

The little dog laughed to see such a sport,

And the dish ran away with the spoon.
