Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I can't imagine how you be getting through your day
It must be hard when you be carrying all the weight
But even with that I see you, you rarely do complain
You give your heart and soul and still they don't appreciate you
Man or woman I got nothing but respect for you
Just knowing you got to deal with all the things we put you through
So I give a standing O to you
I raise my glass to you
[Verse 2]
I won't pretend to know, I can't begin to know
I'm fascinated on the daily how you do the things you do
Man or woman I ain't got a clue no, oh no
Girl, I'm so mesmerized, I'm even mystified
Your affection shows in everything and anything you do
Man or woman I ain't got a clue no
It's amazing how you do all that you do, oh
Suffice to say my hat goes off to you
A standing ovation
And I just wanna give a standing O to you
A standing ovation
[Verse 3]
I can't imagine myself walking in your shoes
It's not even worth the challenge, I know that I would lose
You're just extraordinary way above the ordinary
There ain't no conversation, been that way since God's creation
Man or woman I can't help but be in awe of you
No matter what the deal somehow you always make it through
So I give a standing O to you
I raise my glass to you
[Verse 4]
I won't pretend to know, I can't begin to know
I'm fascinated on the daily how you do the things you do
Man or woman I ain't got a clue no, oh no
Girl, I'm so mesmerized, I'm even mystified
Your affection shows in everything and anything you do
Man or woman I ain't got a clue no
It's amazing how you do all that you do, oh
Suffice to say my hat goes off to you
[Verse 5]
A standing ovation
And I just wanna give a standing O to you
A standing ovation
Man to woman I got nothing but respect for you
Just knowing you got to deal with all the things we put you through
So I give a standing O to you
I raise my glass to you
[Verse 6]
I won't pretend to know, I can't begin to know
I'm fascinated on the daily how you do the things you do
Man or woman I ain't got a clue no, oh no
Girl, I'm so mesmerized, I'm even mystified
Your affection shows in everything and anything you do
Man or woman I ain't got a clue no
It's amazing how you do all that you do, oh
Suffice to say my hat goes off to you
[Verse 7]
A standing ovation
And I just wanna give a standing O to you
A standing ovation
A standing ovation
And I just wanna give a standing O to you
A standing ovation
A standing ovation
And I just wanna give a standing O to you
A standing ovation
