Heart to heart talks, moonlight walks
Receiving money by mail
A fireplace with a view and being here with you

Honey, sure beats laying in the Fort Worth jail
I'm so glad you found me 'cause with your love
I got a handle on a better point of view

I wanna thank you, baby
And my mama wants to thank you, too


Some things I can't mention than keep my attention
I love the way you move
It makes me wanna grin and then give in

To anything you want me to
If I die in the morning it'll be alright
I ain't never gonna feel good again as I feel tonight

I wanna thank you, baby
And my mama wants to thank you, too


Wearin' it out before layin' it down
Is the way I been livin' too long
I just can't believe the change in me

Baby, since you came along
Got no time for dyin' 'cause I just been born
And, baby, I swear it's true

I wanna thank you, baby
And my mama wants to thank you, too
Oh, yeah

I wanna thank you, baby
And my mama wants to thank you, too
