I'm gonna use what I got
|
To get what I need
|
I'm gonna use what I got, use all I got
|
To get what I need, yeah
|
|
Look, I was born in a little old shack
|
Didn't have enough to eat
|
Not enough clothes on my back
|
Lord knows I kept the faith
|
A heart full of woe
|
Now they're trying to get me
|
At the end of my road
|
Use what I got
|
To get what I need
|
I'm gonna use what I got, use all I got
|
To get what I need, yeah
|
|
The rich is content
|
While the poor do without
|
If you ask for some herb
|
They don't know what you're talking about
|
All say they answer
|
As if they're on the wind
|
It changes sometimes
|
That why I'm afraid I've gotta
|
Use what I got
|
To get what I need
|
I'm gonna use what I got, use all I got
|
To get what I need, yeah
|
|
The road of life is mighty steep
|
When you're broke, busted and disgusted
|
For you ain't got nowhere to sleep
|
I'm gonna find me a woman to stand by my side
|
'Cause I'm so tired of running
|
Can't find no place to hide
|
|
I'm gonna use what I got
|
To get what I need
|
I'm gonna use what I got, use all I got
|
To get what I need, yeah
|
Use what I got, you know that I got to
|
Use what I got, said I've got to
|
Use what I got, you gotta use it
|
Use what I got, use it all up now
|
Use what I got, yes I have
|
Use what I got, I've got to, got to
|
Use what I got, said I got to
|
Use what I got
|
Use what I got
|

Use What I Got
