I couldn't wait to turn sixteen
And drive all the boys around
Foot on the gas and hands on the wheel
Was all I could think about
A little rust in the bed of that truck
And a four speed on the floor
Five hundred dollars it was mine all mine
And I never wanted nothing more
I took katie down by the river
With a six dollar bottle of wine
Just a fool tryin' to play it cool
Hopin' she'd let me cross the line
And I was prayin' that she couldn't tell
I never been that far before
The first time's a one time feeling
And I never wanted nothing more
No I never wanted nothing more
Well I'm what I am and I'm what I'm not
And I'm sure happy with what I've got
I live to love and laugh a lot
And that's all I need
My buddies all tried to change my mind
But I told them that I thought it through
Katie laughed and my mama cried
When they heard me say I do
A little ring is a little thing
But it's all that I could afford
Now she's mine all mine till the day I die
And I never wanted nothing more
No I never wanted nothing more
Well I'm what I am and I'm what I'm not
And I'm sure happy with what I've got
I live to love and laugh a lot
And that's all I need
One sunday listen
To the preacher and I knew he was preaching to me
I couldn't help but I walked up front
And I got down on my knees
Right then and there
I swear I changed when I found the lord glory
Hallelujah good god almighty
I never wanted nothing more
No I never wanted nothing more
Well I'm what I am and I'm what I'm not
And I'm sure happy with what I've got
I live to love and laugh a lot
And that's all I need
Never wanted nothing more
