Thanks To You

by Jesse Winchester

on Humour Me (1993)

Goodness, is it really real
It would take a baby boy to know the way I feel
Oh my, floating in the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.

Oh yeah, I'm a sinner and I'm not some beginner
I'll uncork a pint of trouble
And sit down and drink a double
I'm thirsty for something lighter
That'll get me even tighter and tighter
Until one day I think I hear angels play.

Goodness, is it really real
It would take a baby boy to know the way I feel
Oh my, floating in the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.

Well, someday up in glory
I'll weep and tell the story
To someone who will smile and say
"You're a mess, but you're my child."

Goodness, is it really real
It would take a baby boy to know the way I feel
Oh my, floating in the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.

Goodness, is it really real
It would take a baby boy to know the way I feel
Oh my, floating in the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.
