Something'S Better Than Nothing

Just ask that 16-year-old who just got that
Hand-me-down old Ford instead of a new one
Or that VFW vet whose check ain't got much left
But just enough for a cold one, they're both smiling
'cause they realize that

Something's better than nothing
Just a little blessing, a little reason why
We should keep going, 'cause we never know when
What we've been waiting for and praying for
Is around the corner coming
Something's better than nothing
Yeah, something's better than nothing

These four walls ain't no castle
But this shack will be enough to let our life grow
Girl, we ain't got everything, the Jones's win
We can't compete but we both know we got love so

Something's better than nothing
Just a little blessing, a little reason why
We should keep going, 'cause we never know when
What we've been waiting for and praying for
Is around the corner coming
Something's better than nothing

Talk to anyone who got another day
That thought they wouldn't get it
They would tell you thank the Lord
The world's still spinning, and you're still in it

Something's better than nothing
Just a little blessing, a little reason why
We should keep going, 'cause we never know when
What we've been waiting for and praying for
Is around the corner coming
Something's better than nothing
Yeah, something's better than nothing
