I couldn’t wait to turn 16 And drive all the boys around Foot on the gas and hands on the wheel Was all I could think about A little rust in the bed of that truck And a four speed on the floor Five hundred dollars it was mine all mine And I never wanted nothin’ more I took Katie down by the river With a six dollar bottle of wine Just a fool tryin’ to play it cool Hopin’ she’d let me cross the line And I was prayin’ that she couldn’t tell I’d never been that far before The first time’s a one time feelin’ And I never wanted nothin’ more Well I’m what I am And I’m what I’m not I’m sure happy with what I got I live to love and laugh a lot That’s all I need My buddies all tried to change my mind But I told ’em that I thought it through Well Katie laughed and my mama cried When they heard me say ’I Do’ Her little ring is a little thing But it’s all that I could afford Now she’s mine all mine ’til the day I die And I never wanted nothin’ more Well I’m what I am And I’m what I’m not I’m sure happy with what I got I live to love and laugh a lot That’s all I need One Sunday I listened to the preacher And I knew he was preachin’ to me I couldn’t help it I walked up front And I got down on my knee Right then and there I swear I changed When I found the Lord Glory hallelujah good God almighty I never wanted nothin’ more No I never wanted nothin’ more Well I’m what I am And I’m what I’m not I’m sure happy with what I got I live to love and laugh a lot That’s all I need And I never wanted nothin’ more

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque des souvenirs nostalgiques, avec des moments simples de la vie qui apportent une immense satisfaction. Elle raconte l’excitation des années d’adolescence, comme passer le permis de conduire, et les premières expériences amoureuses, où chaque instant est précieux. L’artiste exprime une foi profonde et une gratitude pour les choses simples, comme l'amour et la famille, qui lui suffisent amplement. On ressent une évolution vers une quête spirituelle, culminant avec un engagement envers Dieu, soulignant le fait que la véritable richesse réside dans les liens authentiques et les moments vécus avec ceux qui nous sont chers.
