Bill Anderson - Thanks lyrics

rate me

Sunday morning in the valley we would gather for the service

You would always run to meet me you'd smile at papa kinda nervous

All the people came from miles around and I can still hear the sound

As they sang thanks to the Lord for the sun up in the sky

For the corn that's growin' high and for the child that didn't die

Thanks to the Lord for the crops and for the farm

For the satrenght in my right arm and for keepin' us from harm

And I say thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks to the Lord for a girl like you

[ steel + clapping ]

Come the day that we were married with all our folks from the congregation

Honey you looked just like an angel the sweetest thing in all creation

Papa hugged me and my mama cried everybody smiled with pride

As they sang thanks...

Thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks to the Lord for a girl like you
