you gave when you had nothing but nothing, there’d been no car in the driveway; you cared enough to see, you loaned a cup of sugar and acted like you believed usand i want to thank you, thank you, thank youyour daddy didn’t like the way you put on your make-up, but you always told me how beautiful i was, he said that singing’s for loose women and you, you said you liked my songand i want to thank you, thank you, thank youthere’s too many people who’ve got no one to listen, try to follow the rules and maybe someday get paid – seems they’ve all had their joy chipped away by the people they trusted, and still manage to give their precious love awaythey said that you can’t love who you love - you told me you loved me – your folks didn’t want you no more but you took me in; they all pretended not to see you and you, you touched my face and i want to thank you, thank you, thank you, and i want to thank you, thank you, thank you From Letras Mania
