Thank You World
|
|
I wanna thank you world for lettin' me belong
|
I'm just one fourth of one small group that sings your songs
|
I know that there are others who have served in bigger ways
|
All I can do is sing your music all my days
|
It makes me grateful just to know to know that I can be
|
Unique and fill the spot beside the other three
|
Without a place here in this world I know that I'd be lost
|
Thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause
|
|
I may not ever stand like Stonewall Jackson stood
|
But standing on that stage to me is just as good
|
And I may never be a heavy or a great
|
But you've given me the strenght the strenght to pull me weight
|
Oh for the part I sing is truly part of me
|
And it does its part to lock the other parts in key
|
And it does its part to pull to pull that sweet applause
|
So thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause
|
|
Oh world you've given me a place that I call mine
|
Though I've stepped out of it and I've gotten out of line
|
Sometimes I sing your music slightly out of key
|
And I know I make it harder for the other three
|
Oh I've always done my part the very best I could
|
And it's done the other guys a world of good
|
You've let me sing your praises world and harp about your faults
|
I thank you world for letting me contribute to the cause
|
It makes me grateful just to know to know that I can be
|
unique and fill the spot beside the other three
|
Without a place here in this world I know that I'd be lost
|
Thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause
|
Without a place here in this world I know that I'd be lost
|
Thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause
|
Thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause
