I Thank You lyrics

[Intro: Tom Jones]
I want everybody to get up off your seat
Get your arms together and your hands together
And give me some of that old soul clappin'

[Chorus: Tom Jones, Tower of Power, Larry Braggs]
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, but you did, and I thank you

[Verse 1: Larry Braggs]
If you took your love to somewhere else
I wouldn't know what it meant to be loved to death
You made me feel like I've never felt
Kisses so good I had to holler for help

[Chorus: Tom Jones, Tower of Power, Larry Braggs]
You didn't have to squeeze me like you did
But you did, yes, you did, and I thank you
Didn't have to hold me but you did
But you did, but you did, and I thank you

[Verse 2: Tom Jones]
Every day was something new
You pull out your bag and your fine to-do
You got me trying new things, too
Just so I can keep up with you
[Chorus: Larry Braggs, Tower of Power, Tom Jones]
Oh, you didn't have to shake me but you did
But you did, but 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: Larry Braggs, Tom Jones]
All my life, I've been shortchanged
Without your love, baby, it's a crying shame
And now I know what the fellas are talking about
When they say they've been turned out

[Bridge: Larry Braggs, Tom Jones]
I wanna thank you (I wanna thank you)
I wanna thank you (Thank you, baby)
Yeah, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Larry Braggs, Tower of Power, Tom Jones]
Didn't have to love me but you did
But you did, but 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

[Outro: Larry Braggs, Tom Jones]
I thank you (Thank you, baby)
I thank you, baby (I gotta thank you)
I, ooh, hey
Thank you, baby
I wanna just thank you, yeah
I gotta thank you, baby, gotta thank you
Thank you, thank you, lady
I gotta thank you
