Porterville Lyrics - Complete Studio Albums - Creedence Clearwater Revival

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!
