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 what it takes

I needed money and a pretty face

But I just look at them and say

I use what I got

Take what I get

Give till I ain't got nothin' left

Then I give it some more

Keep on climbin' up that mountain

Keep trucking along

Work up a sweat

Passed every no, after no, after no, till I get a yes

I'm not worried about what I'm not

I use what I got

I still got big dreams and a strong heart

I got a lot of real good friends who helped me get this far

I still got a lot of miles to go

It's a winding uphill 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 nothin' left

Then I give it some more

Keep on climbin' up that mountain

Keep trucking along

Work up a sweat

Passed every no, after no, after no, till I get a yes

I'm not worried about what I'm not

I use what I got

Keep on rollin' along

Doin' my best

Passed every no, after no, after no, till I get a yes

I don't worry about what I'm not

No, no

I don't worry about what I'm not

I use what I got, yeah
