Porterville

Its been an awful long time since I been home,

But you wont catch me goin back down there alone.

Things they said when I was young are quite enough to get me hung.

I dont care! I dont care!

They came and took my dad away to serve some time,

But it was me that paid the debt he left behind.

Folks said I was full of sin, because I was the next of kin.

I dont care! I dont care!

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!

I dont care! I dont care!

Folks were out one night to put me up a fence,

And you can guess that Ive been runnin ever since.

Aint no one thats bout to help, and Ill keep on, I tell myself.

I dont care! I dont care!

I dont care! I dont care!

I dont care! I dont care!

Aint no one thats bout to help,

And Ill keep on, I tell myself.

I dont care! I dont care!

I dont care! I dont care!

I dont care! I dont care!

I dont care! I dont care!

I dont care! I dont care!
