I can't lose what I never had You can't take what I ain't got When I'm happy, you won't make me sad Depending on you all Well I'm not Cause I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left When I'm down I just get up When I'm down well I stand up Been down many times well you know it's true Haven't had a red dime between me and you Cause I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left (x3) Repeatedly while rambling random stuff Cause I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left (x3) And if all fell apart today I could just walk Get on down the street I ain't worried where I'm going to sleep I can always find some food to eat Cause I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left (x3)
