I`d Rather Have Nothing Lyrics

I`d Rather Have Nothing lyrics

Jumped in the tuck and headed for Kansas

Mornin' found me in Port
Arasas

Sippin' on rum in the warm Texas sun

I've never been good at
keeping direction

And I believe schedules 

Are one of life's worst
infections

I've gotta be free cause I'd rather have nothing

Than a
whole lot of somethin' I don't need



Yeah I'd rather have
nothing

Then a whole lot of somethin' 

That I don't suit the life that
I lead

Commitments and strings 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 heartaches and greed

And I'd rather have
nothing

Than a whole lot of something I 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'em 'bout you

And all the hell we'd been
through

Everyone there had a similar story

Years full of tears from all
the heartaches and worry

And we all agreed

That we rather have nothin'


Then a whole lot of something we don't need



Yeah I'd rather have
nothing

Then a whole lot of somethin' 

That I don't suit the life that
I lead

Commitments and strings 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 heartaches and greed

And I'd rather have
nothing

Than a whole lot of something I don't need



They smiled and
waved from the booth in the corner

As if to thank me for the drinks that I'd
ordered

By the look in their eyes

They were feelin' their wine

So I
eased on over and asked if they were alone

And what are the chances of us
three headin' home

They just laughed at me

They said we'd rather have
nothin' 

Then a whole lot of something we don't need
