I've Got You To Thank For That

(album: Especially For You - 1981)

I've got Sunday school to thank for Jesus,
Got educated thanks to mom and dad;
I can borrow money thanks to banker Johnson,
Thanks to me, I've spent all that I have.

I quit smoking thanks to coach Kwolski,
Thanks to Lefty Thompson I can fight;
It took a while learning all life's lessons,
But I learned about love in just one night.

Honey, I've got you to thank for that,
It's good from time to time to look back;
But, It always reminds me that I love it where I'm at,
Honey, I've got you to thank for that.

[Instrumental]

Thanks to Little Richard I felt crazy,
James Dean made me feel that I too was bad;
But then my life took on a new direction,
Honey, I've got you to thank for that.

Honey, I've got you to thank for that,
It's good from time to time to look back;
Bit, It always reminds me that I love it where I am at,
Honey, I've got you to thank for that.
Honey, I've got you to thank for that...
