Let Me Sing And I'm Happy

What care I who makes the laws of a nation

Let those who will take care of its rights and wrongs

What care I who care for the world's affairs

As long as I can sing this popular song



Let me sing a funny song with crazy words that roll along

And if my song can start you laughing I'm happy, so happy

Let me sing a sad refrain of broken hears that love in vain

And if my song can start you crying I'm happy



Let me croon a low down blues to lift you out of your seat

If my song can reach your shoes

And start you tapping your feet, I'm happy



Let me sing of Dixie's charms

Cotton fields and mammy's arms

And if my song can make you homesick I'm happy



I'm happy



Let me sing of Dixie's charms

Cotton fields and mammy's arms

And if my song can make you homesick I'm happy
