[Part 1: I Don't Care]
I'm at a party I don't wanna be at
And I don't ever wear a suit and tie, yeah
I'm wonderin' if I could sneak out the back
Nobody's even lookin' me in my eyes
Then you take my hand
Finish my drink, say, "Shall we dance?"
Hell, yeah
You know I love you, did I ever tell you?
You make it better like that

Don't think I fit in at this party
Everyone's got so much to say, no
I always feel like I'm nobody
Who wants to fit in anyway?

'Cause I don't care when I'm with my baby, yeah
All the bad things disappear
And you're making me feel like maybe I am somebody
I can deal with the bad nights
When I'm with my baby, yeah
I'm with my baby, yeah
No, I don't care, as long as you hold me near
You can take me anywhere
And you're making me feel like I'm loved by somebody
I can deal with the bad nights
When I'm with my baby, yeah
Yeah, ayy, come on, uh
[Part 2: Stand by Me]
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see, no
No, I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

Oh darlin', darlin', stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand, stand by me, yeah
Stand by me

[Outro: I Don't Care & Stand by Me]
No, I don't, I don't care when I'm with my baby, yeah
All the bad things disappear
And you're making me feel like maybe I am somebody

And I can deal with the bad nights
When I'm with my baby, yeah
When I'm with my baby
Just stand stand stand stand, no

Girl, just take me anywhere
'Cause you're making me feel like maybe I am somebody
I can deal with the bad nights
Stand by me, yeah, stand by me
