Water is a terrible conductor. If your outdoor outlet has flaps and is gfci, you're fine. Outdoor string lights will string together. They also have fuses in them for added protection.

You're still probably fine. Millions of people plug outdoor lights into their outdoor plugs every year with no issue. Water really isn't a major concern. :)
You're more worried about build ups of dirt and grime.

It's generally pretty easy to swap out a regular outlet to a GFCI. Just make sure it's an exterior rated GFCI.
