Hanging On To What I Got
By Buck Owens
 
C
Well everybody got something on their mind 
F                      C
That they like to talk about
                                       
Well I got something that I'm proud of 
D7                      G7
And it's worth shouting about
 
   C
Oh well I don't own a string of big fine cars 
      F                   C
And I don't want no fancy yacht
           F                      C
Well I'm a telling you that I'm a happy man 
          G7                   C
And I'm a hanging on to what I got
 
F
I got a girl with two brown eyes 
    C
And arms to hold me tight
    F
And I don't care if the sun don't shine 
    C                 G7
And daylight turns to night
 
     C
Well if a dollar bill is not worth a dime 
           F                   C
And if the whole world goes to pot
           F                      C
Well I'm a telling you that I'm a happy man 
          G7                   C
And I'm a hanging on to what I got
 
                                        
Well I'll not worry about the world 
    F                  C
And what it's a coming to
 
Or if old Lady Jones has got a new hat 
D7                            G7
Or if the browns had turned to blue
 
     C
Well if the London Bridge is a fallen down 
   F                  C
Or if old Big Ben has stopped
           F                      C
Well I'm a telling you that I'm a happy man 
          G7                   C
And I'm a hanging on to what I got
 
repeat #2
           F                      C
Well I'm a telling you that I'm a happy man 
          G7                   C
And I'm a hanging on to what I got
