I Thank You

I want everybody to get up off your seat

And get your arms together and your hands together

Give me some of that old soul clappin'

You didn't have to love me like you did

But you did, but you did and I thank you

You didn't have to squeeze me like you did

But you did, but you did and I thank you

If you took your love somewhere else

I wouldn't know what it meant to be loved to death

You make me feel like I've never felt

Kisses so good I had to holler for help

You didn't have to squeeze me like you did

But you did, but you did and I thank you

You didn't have to hold me like you did

But you did, but you did and I thank you

Every day was something new

You pull out your bag and your fine to-do

You got me tryin' new things too

Just so I can keep up with you

You didn't have to shake me like you did

But you did, but you did and I thank you

You didn't have to make me like you did

But you did, but you did and I thank you

All my life, I been short-changed

Without your love, baby, it's a cryin' shame

And now I know what the fellas are talkin' about

When they say that they been turned out

I wanna thank you, thank you

Thank you, oh baby

Thank you, baby

Yeah, yeah

Oh, babe

I got to thank you

Got to say

You didn't have to love me like you did

But you did, but you did, oh, and I thank you

You didn't have to hold me like you did

But you did, but you did and I thank you

Thank you

Thank you, baby

Baby

Got to thank you

Thank you

Oh baby

Thank, I've got, I've gotta

Thank you

Baby

Thank you, baby

Oh baby

Thank you, baby

Got to thank you

Oh baby

Thank you, thank you

Thank you
