Can you believe me when I say There's nothin' I'd like better Than just to sit here and talk with you Although I'll rant and I'll rave About one thing and another The beauty of it is (hope you'll agree) Though I'm a poor boy I can still be happy As long as I can feel free So many people I know gettin' old way too early (Well, are you feelin' kind of weary) Just to impress you with the money they've made (You'd better, you'd better, you'd better change your theory) One drop of rain they complain And it's the same about the wage they're earnin' Well that is not the way I'm gonna be Don't mind the rain Don't mind snow Don't mind nothin' If I know You will be right here with me Well let us state our only point of view Why can't we all afford to live like you This simple life is simply not enough We have appearances we must keep up Poor boy If that's the way it's gotta be (Poor boy) It's you for you and me for me I try all I can understanding all the fools And all their money When half of what they got You know they never will use Enough to get by suits me fine I don't care if they think I'm funny I'm never gonna change my point of view Don't mind the rain Don't mind snow Don't mind nothin' If I know You will be right here with me Always, na, na, na Don't mind the rain Don't mind snow Don't mind nothin' If I know You will be right here with me
