Ty England - I'd Rather Have Nothing lyrics

rate me

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
