I'd Rather Have Nothing

Jumped in the truck and headed for Kansas

Morning found me in Port Aranas

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 inflections

And I gotta be free

'Cause I'd rather nothing

Than a whole lot of something I don't need

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

That a whole lot of something we don't need

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

I'd rather have nothing

Than a whole of something

That don't fit the life that I lead

Commintments 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 wtih the lust and the greed

And I'd rather have nothing

Than a whole lot of something I don't need

Oh, I'd rather have nothing

Than a whole lot of someting I don't need
