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!)

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

(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

But 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

But 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!)

(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!)
