I'd Rather Have Nothing

(Cold Start)

Verse 1
No Chord
Jumped in the truck and headed for Kansas

Morning found me in Port Aransas

Sipping on rum

In that warm Texas sun

I ve never been good at keeping direction

And I believe schedules are one of life s worst infections

And I gotta be free

Cause I d rather have nothing

Than a whole lot of something I don t need

Chorus 1:

I d rather have nothing

Than a whole lot of something

That don t fit the life that I lead

Material things and all that wealth brings

Just must be for some other breed

Cause life ain t about the worries and doubts

That comes with the lust and the greed

And I d rather have nothing

Than a whole lot of something I don t need

Verse 2:

I spent that evening in a tavern in town

With a bunch of my new friends my money brought round

And I told them bout you

And all the hell we d been through

Everyone there had a similar story

Years full of tears from all the heartache and worry

And we all agreed

That we d rather have nothing

Than a whole lot of something we don t need

Chorus 2:

I d rather have nothing

Than a whole lot of something

That don t fit the life that I lead

Commitments and strings and all that love brings

Just must be for some other breed

Cause life ain t about the worries and doubts

That comes with the lust and the greed

And I d rather have nothing

Than a whole lot of something I don t need

Yeah Yeah

Oh, I d rather have nothing
(ring out)
Than a whole lot of something I don t need
