I Don't Mind
The Desmonds Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't wanna hear your name
I don't wanna think
Just stay away, baby
Don't want to know if you're alright
Or what you're doing with your nights
Don't want to hear you say
I'll get by just fine
And you're going then
Goodbye, goodbye
Don't call me (don't call me)
In the middle of the night no more
Don't expect me to be there
Don't think that (don't think that)
It'll be the way it was before
Don't think that I care
I'm not over you yet
And I don't wanna be your friend
Don't wanna be your friend
I'll forget we ever met
I'll forget I ever let
Ever let you into this
Heart of mine, baby
You just gotta let me be
Gotta keep away from me
'Cause all I want is just
To be free from you, baby
Don't you come around
Don't say you still care about me
Just go now, go now
Don't call me (don't call me)
In the middle of the night no more
Don't expect me to be there
Don't nedd me (don't need me)
It'll be the way it was before
Don't think that I care
I'm not over you yet
And I don't wanna be your friend
The days are casually
But baby it's killing me
Oh, I'll get by just fine
So if you're going then darling
Goodbye, goodbye

LYRICS
[Verse 1]
[Desmond Dennis]
I don't care
When nobody thinks of me
I don't care
Cause no one won't say a thing to me
When i'm in a great mood, i'm a great dude
When i'm in a bad mood, you better make room
[Brayton The Bully]
Won't change, me changing my old ways
This way is my fun drivin, when you got a little road rage
Bein me is so real, switchin up is so fake
I'ma do what i wanna do, you can do things your way
AyyYY
[Chorus]
I don't care
What you say
I'ma do, things my way
Ask around, i don't play
Piss me off, that's a mistake
I (i don't care), i don't care
What you say (what you say)
I'ma do (i'ma do) things my way (things my way)
Ask around (ask around)
I don't play (i don't play)
Piss me off (piss me off)
That's a mistake (That's a mistake)
[Verse 2]
[Brayton The Bully]
Inside i've never been a gentleman that's no cap
Cause every girl loves a bad boy and i know that
There's only room for 1 bully, tell my bros that
It's my way or the highway, so hit the road jack
[Desmond Dennis]
Won't change, he playin no games
Got me feelin like a bench warmer, y'all know i don't play
Bein me is so real, switchin up is so fake
I'ma do what i wanna do, you can do things your way
Ayy
[Chorus]
I don't care
What you say
I'ma do, things my way
Ask around, i don't play
Piss me off, that's a mistake
I (i don't care), i don't care
What you say, (what you say)
I'ma do (i'ma do) things my way (things my way)
Ask around (ask around)
I don't play (i don't play)
Piss me off (piss me off)
That's a mistake (that's a mistake)
I don't care
What you say
I'ma do, things my way
Ask around, i don't play
Piss me off, that's a mistake
