I'd Rather Have Nothing

[Verse 1] I 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 directions And I believe schedules are one of life's worst infections And I got to be free 'cause I'd rather nothing Than a whole lot of something I don't need [Chorus] Yeah 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 Because life ain't about the worries and doubts That comes with the lust and the greed Yeah and I'd rather have nothing That a whole lot of something we don't need [Verse 2] I spent that evening in a tavern in town With a bunch of my new friends my money brought around And I told them about you And all the hell we'd been through Everyone there had a similar story Years for the tears with 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] Yeah I'd rather have nothing Than a whole lot 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 Because life ain't about the worries and doubts That comes with the lust and the greed Yeah and I'd rather have nothing Than a whole lot of something I don't need [Outro] Oh, I'd rather have nothing Than a whole lot of something I don't need
