I'm thankful for what I've got
Don't pay no mind to what I almost had
I'm thankful for what I've got
(She's got herself a real life better)
(She's got herself a real life better)
I ain't got no troubles, baby
And I'm a long way from feelin' sad
I ain't got no money either
But that's something that don't really matter
I'm thankful for what I've got
Don't pay no mind to what I almost had
I'm thankful for what I've got
I've got myself a real life better
(She's got herself a real life better)
There's not enough hours in one day
To sit and watch all my dreams come true
Every day is a sunshine day
Probably 'cause I'm happy and not because of you
And that is something I can surely be proud of
(La-dee-ya-dee-ya)
(La-dee-ya-doo-ya)
(La-dee-ya-doo-doo)
(La-dee-ya-dee-ya)
(La-dee-ya-doo)
She's got herself a real life better
She's got herself a real life better
Now I have found while I've grown
What I really want in life for me
And it's like a dream a dream come true
I got the one I wanted, got the one I need
And I couldn't be more happy now, I really, really mean it
I'm thankful for what I've got
Don't pay no mind to what I almost had
I'm thankful for what I've got
I've got myself a real life better
(She's got herself a real life better)
I've got myself a real life better
She's got herself a real life better
Oh, yeah
Don't pay no mind to what I almost had
I'm thankful for what I've got
