I couldn't wait to turn 16

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 nothin' 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'd never been that far before

The first time's a one time feelin'

And I never wanted nothin' more

No, I never wanted nothin' more

Well I'm what I am

And I'm what I'm not

I'm sure happy with what I got

I live to love and laugh a lot

That's all I need

My buddies all tried to change my mind

But I told 'em that I thought it through

Well Katie laughed and my mama cried

When they heard me say 'I Do'

Her little ring is a little thing

But it's all that I could afford

Now she's mine all mine 'til the day I die

And I never wanted nothin' more

No, I never wanted nothin' more

Well I'm what I am

And I'm what I'm not

I'm sure happy with what I got

I live to love and laugh a lot

That's all I need

One Sunday I listened to the preacher

And I knew he was preachin' to me

I couldn't help it I walked up front

And I got down on my knee

Right then and there I swear I changed

When I found the Lord

Glory, hallelujah, good God almighty

I never wanted nothin' more

No, I never wanted nothin' more

Well I'm what I am

And I'm what I'm not

And I'm sure happy with what I got

I live to love and laugh a lot

That's all I need

Never wanted nothin' more

And I never wanted nothin' more
