WHAT DO I CARE
Words and music by Johnny Cash
As recorded by Johnny Cash as a single (Columbia 4-41251, 1958)

When I'm all through, if I haven't been what they think I should be,
If the total isn't high enough when they figure me,
When I grow old, if there's no gray from worry in my hair,
What do I care? What do I care?

[§] What do I care, just as long as you were mine a little while?
When the road was long and weary, you gave me a few good mile.
What do I care if I miss a goal because I make a slip?
I'll still be satisfied because I tasted your sweet lips.

What do I care if I never have much money?
And sometimes my table looks a little bare?
Anything that I may miss is made up for each time we kiss.
You love me and I love you, so what do I care?

[Repeat from §.]
