Well you came here with nothin'.
So that's how you'll go.
No money, no cars, and no fancy clothes.
There were tears when you got here.
And tears when you leave.
And I might not know much.
But this I believe.
I might not know that much.
But this I belive.
Well the songs that I'm singin' ain't easy to hear.
So tell all your children to cover their ears.
Someone tell my sweetheart this might be the end.
For this is the tension, the break in the bend.
For this is the tension, the break in the bend.
I ain't no lawyer, or no doctor's son.
I may never have money, and I live on the run.
But I'm not runnin' from the truth of my past.
I'm runnin.
Towards somethin'.
New. '
Cause you came here with nothin'.
That's how you'll go.
No money, no cars, and no fancy clothes.
There were tears when you got here.
Tears when you leave.
And I might not know much.
But this I believe.
I might not know that much.
But this I believe.
The songs that I'm singin' may not make a dime.
And that is the reason I wrote them this time. '
Cause you can't take it with you.
When you meet your end.
Ask my grandpa, my brother.
They'll tell ya my friends.
Ask my grandpa, my brother.
They'll tell ya my friends.
Ask my grandpa my brother.
They'll tell ya my friends!
Ask my grandpa my brother.
They'll tell ya my friends. '
Cause you came here with nothin'.
That's how you'll go.
No money, no cars, and no fancy clothes.
There were tears when you got here.
Tears when you leave.
And if I die with nothin'.
Then I have all I need.
If you die with nothin'.
You have all you need.
If we die with nothin.
Then we have all we need.
