Sunday morning, I forgot my prayer
I should have been happy, I still be there
Something could have come and taken me away
But the main man felt Syl should be here another day
That's why I got to be
Thankful yeah, yeah
I gotta be
Thoughtful
Ah ha thankful
You gotta be
thoughtful
From my ankle to the top of my head
I've taken my chances, hah, I could have been dead
I started climbing from the bottom, oh yeah
All the way to the top, ah huh
Before I knew it, I was up there
You believe it or not, yeah
Thankful
Thoughtful
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Thankful
Thoughtful
Oh, something gets me, hah, put my head on tight
Because I know the future everything'll be alright
Until then I'll kick back and let the light shine
Remember all yours coulda been all mine
That's why you ought to be thankful
Hah, hah, you ought to be thoughtful
Thankful
Thoughtful
Middle of stream, hah, I had to change my stroke
I say I put it on the good foot, ha, and it ain't no
joke
They said I was dyin', I didn't want to go
I kept on feelin' I had to live some more
I had somethin' to tell y'all
To be thankful
Y'all oughta be thoughtful
Thankful
Thoughtful
Still rectifying, straightening things out
I know what a good feelin', you're never in doubt
Sometimes I'm by myself, oh lord, feelin' alone
I just look around and check it out and then it's all
gone
I'm still happy to be here
Thankful
Thoughtful
Count your blessings
My Momma gave me a song and said "Son sing
Record thankful and thoughtful, be such a nice thaing
People got to be reminded where it's really at
Make your Daddy happy"
Momma, momma like it like that
You know I know you know I know
I'm thankful you know I'm thoughtful
