Somebody To Thank

(アルバム： Come Back Road - 2017)

I gotta thank a small town preacher
Making me a hymn singer
On the Sunday's mamma made me go
I gotta thank a high school teacher for believing in a dreamer
And steering me down the road
I gotta thank my granddad for the Saturday's on the lake
Cooking 'em and reeling 'em in
I gotta thank the boys I raised all kind of hell with
Couldn't ask for better best friends

I gotta thank Earnhardt
Springsteen, Luke Skywalker
For filling up my memory bank
I gotta thank JD, Jim Beam, mr. Anheuser
For a Friday night good time drink
I gotta thank mama and my daddy
For eighteen years then gasing up the Chevrolet tank
No matter who you are
Everybody's got somebody to thank

I gotta thank an old coon dog
For licking my hand on days I was feeling alone
I gotta thank my old man's brother
For a tour in the jungle
Just to keep us all safe at home
I gotta thank a next door neighbor
For calling that number
That morning our house caught fire
I gotta thank a Midwest farmer
For a teenage summer
With a boy he didn't have to hire

I gotta thank Beau, Luke, Mellencamp
Joe Montana for filling up my memory bank
I gotta thank JD, Jim Beam, mr Anheuser
For a Friday night good time drink
I gotta thank mama and my daddy
For eighteen years then gasing up the Chevrolet tank
No matter who you are
Everybody's got somebody to thank

No I ain't forgot and I'll never forget

I gotta thank God for every day I've had
And every day I'll get

I gotta thank the love of my life
Every day and night
For filling up my memory bank
I gotta thank JD, Jim Beam, mr Anheuser

For a Friday night good time drink
I gotta thank mama and my daddy
For eighteen years then gasing up the Chevrolet tank
No matter who you are
Everybody's got somebody to thank
