I Don’t Care lyrics
by Justin Townes Earle
Standing on the corner in the middle of the night, begging dollars from people I see
Trying to book a ticket on a one-way ride up out of these dirty streets
And I don't know where I'm going no more
I don't know, and I don't care
Well the railcars running though these streets so fast, I would jump one if they'd just slow down
There's killers on the road so it ain't much chance of me trying and hitching around
Ah but if I had a dollar, boy, I'd find me a game and I bet you I could turn it into five
And if I had five I'd book a bullet train and ride it to the end of the line
And I don't know where I'm going no more
I don't know, and I don't care
Well Chicago, Cincinnati, New York City, Tuc*mcari, Amarillo or Los Angeles
Saskatoon, Baton Rouge, Miami, Johnson City, or anywhere in between
Anywhere but here, anywhere at all, I'm just looking for a change
I don't want to see the sun rising up on this dirty little town again
And I don't know where I'm going no more
I don't know, and I don't care
And I don't know where I'm going no more
I don't know, and I don't care
