[Verse 1]
Nobody ever thought I'd make it in this town
They all said I should leave my truck, pack, and turn right back around
They said I didn't have what it takes, I needed money and a pretty face
But I just look at them and say...

[Chorus]
I use what I got, take what I get
Give 'til I ain't got nothin' left
Then I give it some more
Keep on climbin' up that mountain
Keep truckin' along, work up a sweat
Past every no, after no, after no, 'til I get a yes
I don't worry 'bout what I'm not
I use what I got, yeah

[Verse 2]
I still got big dreams and a strong heart
I got a lot o' real good friends who helped me get this far
I still got a lot of miles to go, it's a winding, uphill road
But I'll get there the only way I know

[Chorus]
I use what I got, take what I get
Give 'til I ain't got nothin' left
Then I give it some more
Keep on climbin' up that mountain
Keep truckin' along, work up a sweat
Past every no, after no, after no, 'til I get a yes
I don't worry 'bout what I'm not
I use what I got, yeah
[Outro]
Keep on rollin' along, doin' my best
Past every no, after no, after no, 'til I get a yes
I don't worry 'bout what I'm not
No, no, I don't worry 'bout what I'm not
I use what I got, yeah
