I Thank You lyrics
by Isaac Hayes
[Chorus]
You didn't have to love me like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
You didn't have to squeeze me like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
[Verse 1]
You took your love someone else
I wouldn't know what it meant to be loved to death
You made me feel like I never felt
Your kiss is so good, I have to holler for help
[Chorus]
You didn't have to speak to me like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
You didn't have to hold me like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
[Verse 2]
Every day there's something new
You pull out your bag and your fine to-do
You've got to try things to do
So I can keep up with you
[Chorus]
You didn't have to shake me like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
You didn't have to make it like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
[Verse 3]
All my life I've been shortchanged
Without your love, baby, it's a crying shame
Now I know what they're talking about
When they say that they've been turned out
[Chorus]
You didn't have to love me like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
You didn't have to squeeze me like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
[Outro]
Thank you, girl
I thank you, woman
Thank you, baby
Thank you, honey
Oh, I wanna thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
I thank you
Ah baby, thank you, girl
Thank you, woman, woman, woman, woman, woman
Thank you, honey
Woo-hoo
Oh yeah
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
Mhm, huh, yeah, oh
