“You Don’t Care for Me Enough to Cry” was written and recorded by John Moreland, the Oklahoma songwriter admired for his plainspoken, heavy-hearted writing. It appeared on his 2015 album “High on Tulsa Heat.”
The song is a study in the cold end of love. The deepest hurt, the singer finds, is not anger or mistreatment but indifference — that the one he loved no longer cares enough even to cry over him.
Moreland’s songs have been embraced across Americana and roots music. The version heard here is by John Moreland.
