My Baby Just Cares For Me
Nat King Cole & Woody Herman Lyrics

My baby don't care for shows
My partner is not impressed or interested in attending any kinds of fancy events or exhibitions.

My baby don't care for clothes
My partner isn't into fashion or concerned about the clothes I wear. They love me for who I am as a person, not what I look like.

My baby just cares for me
Despite not being impressed by materialistic possessions or superficial things, my partner's love and attention towards me are genuine and sincere.

My baby don't care for furs and laces
My partner doesn't care about expensive, lavish things like fur or lace materials. They don't measure worth in materialistic objects and are content with what they have.

My baby don't care for high toned places
My partner doesn't enjoy places that are overly fancy or elitist. They prefer a more laidback and chill atmosphere.

My baby don't care for rings
My partner doesn't place importance on jewelry or other expensive accessories. They understand that love isn't measured by lavish gifts and materialistic things.

Or other expensive things
My partner isn't impressed by anything monetary or materialistic, even if it's a luxurious car or other such expensive goods.

She's sensible as can be
My partner is very responsible and wise in their decisions, never wasting money on unnecessary possessions.

My baby don't care who knows it
My partner is happy to let others know that their love towards me is genuine and authentic, regardless of others' opinions.

My baby's no Crosby fan
My partner isn't a fan of Bing Crosby's music or style. They have their own interests and preferences that are unique to them.

Dick Tracy is not her man
My partner doesn't idolize or look up to any fictional characters in the media, like Dick Tracy or any other popular figures.

My baby just cares for me
My partner's loyalty and affection towards me is unwavering and genuine, never swayed by outside influences or societal expectations.

My baby don't care for Mr. Tibbits
My partner doesn't put much value in social status or elitism, as evidenced by their lack of admiration for Mr. Tibbits.

She'd rather have me around to kibitz
My partner values quality time with me more than anything, even if it means just hanging out and chatting about nothing in particular.

Roy Rogers is not her style
My partner doesn't have admiration for popular media figures like Roy Rogers, and has their own unique taste and style.

And even Clark Gable's smile
My partner isn't impressed by the handsome looks or charm of celebrities like Clark Gable. They focus on deeper, more meaningful qualities in a person.

Is something that she can't see
My partner values authenticity and inner beauty more than outer appearances, which is why they're not fazed by Hollywood's superficial standards of beauty.

(Oh, you lucky so and so)
The singer is envious of the lucky person being talked about here, who is fortunate enough to receive true love without the pressure of materialistic expectations.

I wonder what's wrong with baby
The singer humorously ponders what could possibly be wrong with their partner, who is content with simply caring for them rather than superficial possessions.

My baby just cares for me
The song's refrain reinforces the idea that the partner's love for the singer is true and authentic, regardless of what others may think or say.
