I Use What I Got

Nobody ever thought I'd make it in this town

They all said I should leave my truck packed

And turn right back around

They said I didn't have it what it takes

I needed money and a pretty face

But I'd just look at them and say



I use what I got

Take what I get

Give till I ain't got nothing left

Then I give it some more

Keep on climbing up that mountain

Keep trucking along

Work up a sweat

Past every no after no after no till I get a yes

I don't worry 'bout what I'm not

I use what I got



I've still got big dreams and a stong heart

I've got a lot of real good friends

Who helped me get this far

I've still got a lot of miles to go

It's a winding up hill road

But I'll get there the only way I know



I use what I got

Take what I get

Give till I ain't got nothing left

Then I give it some more

Keep on climbing up that mountain

Keep trucking along

Work up a sweat

Past every no after no after no till I get a yes

I don't worry 'bout what I'm not

I use what I got



Keep on rolling along

Doing my best

Past every no after no after no till I get a yes

I don't worry 'bout what I'm not... no no..

I don't worry 'bout what I'm not

I use what I got
