Porterville Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's been an awful long time since I been home
But you won't catch me going 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!)

[Chorus]
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!
(I don't care! I don't care!)

[Verse 2]
Folks were out one night to put me up a fence
And you can guess that I've been running 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!)

[Chorus]
(I don't care! I don't care!
I don't care! I don't care!)

[Outro]
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!)
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!
(I don't care! I don't care!)
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!
(I don't care! I don't care!
I don't care! I don't care!
I don't care! I don't care!)
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!
(I don't care! I don't care!
I don't care! I don't care!
I don't care! I don't care!)
