Nobody ever thought I'd make it in this town
They all said I should leave my truck, pack, and turn right back around
They said I didn't have what it takes, I needed money and a pretty face
But I just look at them and say
I use what I got, take what I get until I ain't got nothin' left
Then I give it some more, keep on climbing up that mountain
Keep truckin a- long, work up a sweat
Pass every no, after no, after no, till I get a yes
I don't worry about what I've done
I use what I got, yeah
Instrumental
I still got big dreams and a strong heart
I got a lot of real good friends who helped me get this far
I still got a lot of miles to go, it's a winding, uphill road
And I'll get there the only way I know
I use what I got, take what I get until I ain't got nothin left
Then I give it some more, keep on climbin' up that mountain
Keep truckin' a- long, work up a sweat
Pass every no, after no, after no, till I get a yes
I don't worry about what I'm not
I use what I got, yeah
Instrumental
Keep on rollin' a- long, doin' my best
Past every no after no after no til i get a yes
I don't worry about what I'm not
No, no, I don't worry about what I'm not
I use what I got, yeah
