Breaking my back to earn my daily bread
Trying to keep a roof above my head
Lord, my life has not been easy
And I don't know what to do
If she wasn't there to please me
When my daily work is through
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
So what if I had some rain
So what if I knew some pain
You know that I can't complain
As long as I've got you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord for giving me
Someone who believes in me
And, girl, I wanna thank you too
For each little thing that you do
To help me see it through
Someday I'll build a better life somehow
And we'll forget the lean times we know now
I won't always be a loser
They can't keep a good man down
And my source of inspiration
Will be knowing she's around
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
So what if I had some rain
So what if I knew some pain
You know that I can't complain
As long as I've got you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord for giving me
Someone who'll believe in me
Girl, I wanna thank you too
For each little thing that you do
