I Don't Care Anymore Lyrics - Singles - Doris Duke

I came to the city from the deep south 

When the mills shut down 

I married a man who treated me 

Like he bought me by the pound 

Packed my bags and left 

With just 20 dollars in my purse 

Took a lot of jobs 

Went from bad to worse 

Now my money's gone 

I'm lying here on this lumpy bed 

Now, I don't know if I'm better off 

Alive or dead 

Hotel room, west side, east side 

Men knocking at my door 

Hotel room, west side, east side 

And I don't care anymore 

Then I met a guy smooth as silk 

In a midtown bar 

He told me with my good looks 

I'd go very far 

I didn't know what he meant 

I thought he was heaven sent 

Till I found out his sweet talking 

Added up to street walking 

That was the part, it finally broke my heart 

I'm lying here on this lumpy bed 

I don't know if I'm better off 

Alive or dead 

Hotel room, west side, east side 

Men knocking at my door 

Hotel room, west side, east side 

And I don't care anymore 

Don't care anymore 

Money's all gone 

Don't care anymore 

Men knocking at my door
