i couldn't wait to turn sixteen and drive all the boys around
foot on the gas and hands on the wheel was all i could think about
a little rust in the bed of that truck and a four-speed on the floor
five hundred dollars it was mine all mine and i never wanted nothing more
i took katie down by the river with a six dollar bottle of wine
just a fool tryin' to play it cool, hoping she'd let me cross the line
i was prayin' she couldn't tell i'd never been that far before
the first time's a one-time feeling and i never wanted nothing more
no, i never wanted nothing more
well i'm what i am and i'm what i'm not
and i'm sure happy with what i've got
i live to love and laugh a lot
and that's all i need
my buddies all tried to change my mind but i told them i'd thought it through
well katie laughed and my momma cried when they heard me say i do
a little ring is a little thing but it's all that i could afford
now she's mine all mine till the day i die and i never wanted nothing more
no i never wanted nothing more
well i'm what i am and i'm what i'm not
and i'm sure happy with what i've got
i live to love and laugh a`lot
and that's all i need
one sunday i listened to the preacher and i knew he was preaching to me
i couldn't help but i walked up front and i got down on my knee
right then and there i swear i changed when i found the lord
glory hallelujah, good god almighty
i never wanted nothing more
no i never wanted nothing more
well i'm what i am and i'm what i'm not
and i'm sure happy with what i got
i live to love and laugh a lot
and that's all i need
never wanted nothing more
and i never wanted nothing more |
