I Thank You Baby Lyrics

[Verse 1: Donny Hathaway & June Conquest]
Mama said thank you for the rain
She said thank for every little drop on the window pane
She said thank you when she didn't have a dime
'Cause she knew that the Man Upstairs would be right there on time

[Refrain: Donny Hathaway with June Conquest]
And like the love that she expressed from day to day
June, I'd like to tell you in my own sweeter way
You really got a hold on me

[Verse 2: June Conquest & Donny Hathaway]
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound (My Lord)
That saved a wretch like me
I was once was lost, but baby, now I'm found
I was so blind, now I see
I do understand going back into my life
And though it was hard, He would comfort me
Ooh baby, my own was depressed from the strain and strife
And I'm indebted to the love she gave so tenderly

[Outro: Donny Hathaway & June Conquest, June, Donny]
And like the love she expressed from day to day
I'd like to tell you in my own sweeter way
You really got a hold on me
I thank you, baby (Thank you)
You really got a hold on me
I thank you, baby
Oh, and like the love that she expressed from day to day
Honey, I wanna tell you in my own sweet way
June, I love you (I love you)
Oh-ho, you really got a hold on me
I thank you, baby (I thank you, baby)
I thank you, baby (I thank you, baby)
I said I thank you, baby (Thank you, thank you, baby)
Said thank you, baby (Thank you, baby)
So good to me, darling (I wanna thank you, darling)
I wanna thank you, baby (Oh, thank you, baby)
Woo-wee (Thank you, baby)
You've been good to me, baby (Thank you, baby)
I thank you, honey (I wanna thank you)
