He Don't Care About Me

(álbum: I'll Try Something New - 1962)

Mama, he pays no attention to me
Oh dear, what can the matter be
Don't he like the way I wear my hair
Oh mama, it's so unfair
For me to love him like I do
And for my love to be true
To love a guy when I can see
That he don't care about me

No matter what I do, he just won't say
"Oh gee, you look nice today"
He didn't notice my brand new dress
Oh mama, I tried my best
To show him that I care
It's just so unfair
To love a guy when I can see
That he don't care about me

Showed my love in a thousand ways
Hoping he would notice me one of these days
Dropped my hankie and he walked right by
He didn't even notice, oh me oh my

Mama, he doesn't even know my name
Oh dear, it's such a doggone shame
Don't he know that I could make him gay
Give him loving both night and day
Why is love so cruel
Oh I am just a fool
To love a guy when I can see
That he don't care about me

To love a guy when I can see
Know that he don't care about me
No no no he don't care
It's just so unfair
