Nothing But the Whole Wide World

Nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world to gain I'm here on the blacktop The sun in my eyes Women and country on my mind Bolting me out Over the borderline Now there's no more love loss and no more shame No more digging holes or graves Nothing to lose but rivets and chains Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world to gain Was born in a stable and built like an ox Down in the pastures I learned how to walk Mama, she raised me to sing and just let 'em talk Said no rich man's worth his weight in dust Bury him down same as they'll do us God wants us busy, never giving up He wants nothing but the whole wide world for us Nothing but the whole wide world for us Nothing, nothing Well there's nothing but the whole wide world for us Nothing, nothing Well there's nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world for us We ain't got no money, can't get no love Never was too good at either of 'em I'm here for adventure whichever way it comes But what good is an angel that won't catch up Free falling now and I'm ready enough I give my tears and I give my blood I give nothing but the whole wide world for one Nothing but the whole wide world for one Nothing, nothing Give nothing but the whole wide world for one Nothing, nothing Give nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world for one
