"Something's Better Than Nothing" lyrics

Just ask that sixteen year old who just got that
Hand-me-down old Ford instead of a new one
Of 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
Yeah girl we ain't got everything the Joneses 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
'Cause something's better than nothing

Talk to anyone who got another day
That thought they wouldn't get it
They would tell ya 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
