paroles de chanson Thankful N' Thoughtful - Bettye LaVette

Sunday morning, I forgot my prayer
I should have been happy, Lord, an' I'll still be there
Somethin' could have come along and taken me away
But the powers that be said, I should have another day

And that's why I'm so thankful
Uh, uh, now, I'm thoughtful
I'm thankful
And I'm thoughtful

From my ankle to the top of my head
I've taken many chances, no, and I could have been dead
I started climbing from the bottom all the way to the top
Before I knew it, I was up there, y'all can believe it or not

That's why I'm so thankful
Lord, and I'm thoughtful
I think about it all the time
I'm tryin' to tell you that I'm thankful
And I'm thoughtful

Now, I got it rectified, got it all straightened out
I got a good feelin', never had no more doubt
Sometimes, when I'm by myself, feelin' all alone
I take a look at what I've got and all the bad feeling, it's gone

And that's why I'm so thankful
Lord, and I'm thoughtful
I'm, I'm thankful, aw-aw-aw
And I'm thoughtful

In the middle of the stream, I had to change my stroke
I had to get on the good foot, y'all, and that ain't no joke
They said I was dyin', but I didn't wanna go
I kept on believing, I had to live some more

'Cause I had to tell you that I'm thankful
Oh, I'm thoughtful
I'm thankful
Y'all don't you know that I'm thoughtful?
I think about it all the time

Thankful
Thoughtful
Thankful
Thoughtful
I'm, I'm thankful
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm thoughtful
Thankful
Thoughtful
