Got It All With You
Buck McCoy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1: So impatient tired of waiting time gets shorter it's frustrating

up at dawn I get the paper off to work now see you later

is this what my life's really all about?


Chorus: I wanna be a better man just tryin' to make it through

right when I think I've gotten there I find I've got more work to do

wish I were a much richer man but if you wanna know the truth

everything I'm lookin' for I've got it all with you


Verse 2: Smiles and laughter late night chatter tears and joy are things that matter

that's what my life's really all about (Repeat Chorus)


Bride: I feel like I am sinkin' could my life be so bad?

then I take a look around

lately I've been thinking everything I need's right

it's with you look what I have found


Chorus (modulated)

I wanna be a better man just tryin' to make it through




right when I think I've gotten there I find I've got more work to do

wish I were a richer man but if you wanna know the truth

everything I'm lookin' for I've got it all with you

yes everything little thing I'm searchin' for I've got it all

I've got it all with you
