If she's gone, let her go,
let her sink or let her swim.
If she won't care as much for me
as she now cares for him.
And why should I care?
I'm so happy, young and free.
And I can find another love
much prettier than she.
And I can find another love
much prettier than she.
Now she loved me just a little,
like the dew upon the corn
She'd put it on in the evening time
and take it off at morn
But why should I care,
I'm so happy young and free
And I can find another love
much prettier than she
And I can find another love
much prettier than she
So if she's gone, let her go,
let her sink or let her swim
If she won't care as much for me
as she now cares for him
And why should I care?
I'm so happy, young and free
And I can find another love
much prettier than she
And I can find another love
much prettier than she
Oh, she's little and she's pretty,
and her ways they are so neat
And oh, I wish that she were
not so full of her deceit
But why should I care?
I'm so happy, young and free
And I can find another love
much prettier than she
And I can find another love
much prettier than she
When I had my arms around her,
her thoughts were not of me.
She was thinking of a new love,
and wishing I were he.
But why should I care,
I'm so happy, young and free.
I can find another love
much prettier than she.
And I can find another love
much prettier than she.
So if she's gone, let her go,
let her sink or let her swim
If she won't care as much for me
as she now cares for him
And why should I care?
I'm so happy, young and free
And I can find another love
much prettier than she
And I can find another love
much prettier than she
