Lyrics
Thank you, Lord
For the cloud you made for me
I know you put the cloud there
For all of us to see
That I'd have a home amongst the stars
To cure all my ills and all of my scars
But I'm tired of living on a cloud alone
I need a girl to help fill my happy home
I'm gonna search and search
This whole wide Milky Way
And I'm sure I'll find a girl someday
To ride real high on my cloud in the sky
To live together until the day that we die
But until that day, I'll remain here on Earth
Lookin' and a-searchin' for a girl that is worth
Worth
To share my home and all that I own
To love and guide me so I won't be alone
Girl I marry will live in my cloud
And I'll do my best, my very best
To make her proud, oh
That she married and carried for me
Babies by the dozen
Maybe one, two, or three
And on my wedding day
I'll give to my wife
Necklace full of stars for the rest of her life
Thank you, Lord
For answering my prayer
And sending me down someone
To share my love, my cloud
You're gonna be so proud, ooh
Thank you Lord, thank you Lord
For answering my prayer
And sending me someone down to share
Mmm
