WHO CARES WHAT PEOPLE SAY?
M K Jerome (m) Jack Scholl (l)  1946

as rec by Mel Torme w Sonny Burke & his Orch  
Nov 29th 1946 Hollywood


Let them say we're mad about each other,
Let them gossip as they may!
As long as we are mad about each other,
Who cares what people say?

When they say they've seen my arms about her,
Should I take my arms away?
As long as she desires my arms about her,
Who cares what people say?

We've built our dreams too high,
Why should we let them all come tumble down?
I jnow that she and I
Will keep our love alive, though we're the talk of the town!

Let them say we're always seen together,
That's the way we want to stay!
As long as we can always be together,
Who cares what people say?
Who cares what people say?

Let them say we're always seen together,
That's the way we want to stay!
As long as we can always be together,
Who cares what people say?
Who cares what people say?
