Porterville Songtext
von Creedence Clearwater Revival
Porterville Songtext
It′s been an awful long time since I've 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)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(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
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)
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)
(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)
(I don′t care)
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)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(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
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)
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)
(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)
(I don′t care)
