Thank You Girl Lyrics - John Hiatt

You're a little on the thin side 

But that's alright 

You stood by me baby 

When I didn't think we'd ever see daylight 

Rolled out of California 

Like a couple of thieves 

Now we're rolling in clover babe 

We didn't read this in no tea leaves 

My fate was sealed before I met you darling 

I was halfway down a shallow grave 

So little room for you to catch me falling 

Still you took the little love I saved

CHORUS: 

I wanna thank you girl 

I wanna thank you girl 

I wanna thank you girl 

I wanna thank you girl 

It's a matter of opinion 

But I think you're fine 

As a matter of fact babe 

They couldn't hold a candle to your kind 

If all men are equal 

This must be against the law 

'Cause I can't help but feeling 

I'm one up on my brother when night falls 

Photos 

'Cause in your arms I get the real love story 

No fairy tale from somewhere back in time 

In the dawn you're like a morning glory 

Opening up for my sweet light to shine 

CHORUS
