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 direction 
And i believe schedules are one of life's worst inflections 
And i gotta be free 
'Cause I'd rather nothing 
Than a whole lot of something I don't need 

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 
'cause life ain't about the worries and doubts 
That comes with the lust and the greed 
and i'd rather have nothing 
that a whole lot of something we 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 them 'bout you 
and all the hell we'd been through 
everyone there had a similar story 
years full of tears from 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 

i'd rather have nothing 
than a whole 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 
'cause life ain't about the worries and doubts 
that comes wtih the lust and the greed 
and i'd rather have nothing 
than a whole lot of something i don't need 

0h, i'd thater have nothing 
than a whole lot of someting i don't need
