Eddie Cantor - My Baby Just Cares For Me (1930)

"My Baby Just Cares For Me"

I'm so happy since the day
That I fell in love in a great big way,
And the big surprise is someone loves me too.
Guess it's hard for you to see
Just what anyone could see in me,
But it only goes to prove what love can do.

My baby don't care for shows,
My baby don't care for clothes,
My baby just cares for me,
My baby don't care for furs and laces,
My baby don't care for high-toned places,
My baby don't care for rings
Or other expensive things,
She's sensible as can be,
My baby don't care who knows it,
My baby just cares for me.

My baby's no Gilbert fan,
Ronald Colman is not her man,
My baby just cares for me,
My baby don't care for Lawrence Tibbett's
She'd rather have me around to kibitz,
Bud Rogers is not her style,
And even Chevalier's smile
Is something that she can't see,
I wonder what's wrong with baby,
My baby just cares for me, me, only me.


My baby don't care for shows,
My baby don't care for clothes,
My baby just cares for me,
My baby just loves those consultations
And how she enjoys my operations.
After our honeymoon
In April, May, or June
I'll get my nursing free,
Then I can feel good for nothing,
My baby just cares for me.
