Nobody Cared Lyrics - At Osteraker Prison - Johnny Cash

It all started out in Illinois with a woman that I thought was just my own 

She saw a new tie and a new shirt kicked her heels and flipped her skirt 

Slammed that door and left me standing all alone 

They had a love nest in his new club there went my wife all over town 

As I watched it I got green and with my drinkin' I got mean 

Stuck a match and burned that club right to the ground 

And I spent nine months in the hole lyin' there in solitaire 

And nobody cared nobody cared nobody cared 

There was a screw out in the hall that had me backed up to the wall 

Escortin' me with a water pistol in that 36 degrees 

With me shiverin' to my knees I ain't gonna forget about that water pistol 

If I've been bad you think that'll make me better 

If I've been a sinner you think that'll make me a saint no it ain't 

Freedom come and I found him made him take off 

All his clothes and socks and shoes 

Had him scramblin' on the floor tryin' to make it to the door 

Cryin' crawlin' screamin' bloody murder too 

Well I didn't really kill him though over his whole world there hung a paw 

I made him bend over on his knees and to his screams of Owen please 

Took my turpentine water pistol and I let him have it all
