Porterville

It's been an awful long time since i been home,

But you won't catch me goin' back down there alone.

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

I don't care! i don't 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 don't care! i don't care!



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

I don't care! i don't care!



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

And you can guess that i've been runnin' ever since.

Ain't no one that's 'bout to help, and i'll keep on, i tell myself.

I don't care! i don't care!



I don't care! i don't care!

I don't care! i don't care!



Ain't no one that's 'bout to help,

And i'll keep on, i tell myself.

I don't care! i don't care!

I don't care! i don't care!

I don't care! i don't care!

I don't care! i don't care!

I don't care! i don't care!
