Bing Crosby and Al Jolson - Let Me Sing and I'm Happy

What care I who makes the laws of a nation?
Let those who will take care of it's right and wrongs
What care I who cares for the world's affairs?
As long as I can sing it's popular songs

Let me sing a funny song with crazy words that roll along
And if my song can start you laughing, I'm happy, happy
Let me sing a sad refrain of broken hearts who loved in vain
And if my song can start you crying, I'm happy

Let me croon a low-down blues that lifts you out of your seat
If my blues can reach your shoes and start you tapping your feet, I'm happy
Let me sing of Dixie's charms, of cotton fields and Mammy's arms
And if my song can make you homesick, I'm happy

Let me sing a funny song with crazy words that roll along
And if my song can start you laughing, I'm happy, happy
Let me sing a sad refrain of broken hearts who loved in vain
And if my song can start you crying, I'm happy

Oh, let me croon a low-down blues that lifts you out of your seat
If my blues can reach your shoes and start you tapping your feet, I'm happy
I want to sing of Dixie's charms, of cotton fields and Mammy's arms
And if my song can make you homesick, I'm happy
