[Verse 1]
Wish I was a Rockefeller, wish I was a richer fella
Wish I was a Carnegie with money far as I can see
But I'm flat busted
Here in Knoxville, Tennessee
But I don't owe nobody nothin' and nobody's got no paper held on me

[Chorus]
I'd be content for sure if
I had a little bit more
I've been gettin' by with what is mine
I've been gettin' by with what is mine
I've been gettin' by with what is mine
I've been gettin' by with what is mine

[Verse 2]
Wish I was an Einstein, rule the world with my mind
If I was Socrates, I'd submit you to a questioning
I'd argue any point I knew with absolute clarity
Ain't anything you could get by me
I'd march up to the pearly gates and talk my way right past St. Pete
[Chorus]
Might not be good enough to fool the Lord, but
It'd be good enough to fool you for sure
I've been gettin' by with what is mine
I've been gettin' by with what is mine
I've been gettin' by with what is mine
I've been gettin' by with what is mine

[Chorus]
I ain't got enough to buy a dang thing
But I've got this guitar and a song to sing
And I've been gettin' by with what is mine
I've been gettin' by with what is mine
I've been gettin' by with what is mine
And I've been gettin' by with what is mine

[Outro]
Wish I was a Vanderbilt, I'd hide out in that house we built
Wish I was Coca-Cola sellin' all the sugar water
Wish I was Exxon burnin' crude until it's gone
Wish I was Sara Lee, I'd be livin' on banana cream
Wish I was Nabisco, I'd fill up on those Oreos
