Porterville
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!
Folks were out one night
to put me up a fence
But 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!
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!
