Thanks to You Songtext
von Emmylou Harris

(Jesse Winchester)

Well, goodness is it really real
It′d take a baby child to know the way I feel
Oh, my flutter to the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.

Oh yeah, I′m a sinner
And I ain't some beginner
I'll uncork a pint of trouble
Sit down and drink a double.

I′m thirsty for something lighter
That′ll get me even tighter
And tighter until one day
I think I hear angels play.

Goodness is it really real
It'd take a baby child to know the way I feel
Oh, my flutter to the blue
I would take the credit but it′s thanks to you.

--- Instrumental ---


Now someday up in glory
Well, I'll weep and tell the story
To someone who will smile
And say you′re a mess but you're my child.

Goodness is it really real
It′d take a baby child to know the way I feel
Oh, my flutter to the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.

Oh, my flutter to the blue

Well, goodness is it really real
It'd take a baby child to know the way I feel
Oh, my flutter to the blue
I would take the credit but it′s thanks to you.
