I Use What I Got

Nobody ever thought I'd make it in this town

They all said I should leave my truck

Pack 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

Until I ain't got nothin' left

Then I give it some more

Keep on climbing up that mountain

Keep truckin' along, work up a sweat

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

I don't worry about what I've done

I use what I got, yeah

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

And I'll get there the only way I know

I use what I got, take what I get

Until I ain't got nothin' left

Then I give it some more

Keep on climbing up that mountain

Keep truckin' along, work up a sweat

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

I don't worry about what I've done

I use what I got, yeah

Keep on rollin' along, doin' my best

Past 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
