I Use What I Got by Jason Aldean
Album: Relentless
Released: 2007
Chicago Cubs southpaw, Jon Lester's "plate" music.
Classic inspirational song about the need to keep going through adversity and proving your critics wrong.
"Nobody ever thought I'd make it in this town"..."They said I didn't have what it takes"..."Past every 'no' after 'no' after 'no' till I get a 'yes'"
Lyrics
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...
I use what I got
Take what I get
Until I ain't got nothin' left
Then I give it some more
Keep on climbing up that mountain
Keep truckin' along, work up a sweat
Past every "no" after "no" after "no" till I get a "yes"
I don't worry about what I've done
I use what I got, yeah
I still got big dreams and a strong heart
I got a lot of 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...
I use what I got
Take what I get
Until I ain't got nothin' left
Then I give it some more
Keep on climbing up that mountain
Keep truckin' along, work up a sweat
Past every "no" after "no" after "no" till I get a "yes"
I don't worry about what I've done
I use what I got, yeah
