Somebody to Thank (Acoustic Sessions)

I gotta thank a small town preacher
Makin me a hymn singer
On the Sunday's Mama made me go
I gotta thank a high school teacher for believin' in a dreamer
And steering me down the road
I gotta thank my granddaddy for the Saturday's on the lake
Hookin' 'em and reelin' 'em in
I gotta thank the boys I raised all kinds of hell with
Couldn't ask for better best friends

I gotta thank Earnhardt, Springsteen, Luke Skywalker
For filling up my memory bank
I gotta thank JD, Jim Beam, Mr. Anheuser
For a friday night good time drink
I gotta thank Mama and my Daddy
For eighteen years of them gasin' up the Chevrolet tank
No matter who you are
Everybody's got somebody to thank

I gotta thank an old coon dog
For licking my hand on days I was feeling alone
I gotta thank my old man's brother
For a tour in the jungle
Just to keep us all safe at home
I gotta thank a next door neighbor
For calling that number
That morning our house caught fire
I gotta thank a midwest farmer
For a teenage summer
With a boy he didn't have to hire

I gotta thank Beau, Luke, Mellencamp
Joe Montana for filling up my memory bank
I gotta thank JD, Jim Beam, Mr. Anheuser
For a friday night good time drink
I gotta thank Mama and my Daddy
For eighteen years of them gasin' up the Chevrolet tank
No matter who you are
Everybody's got somebody to thank

No I ain't forgot and I'll never forget

I gotta thank God for every day I've had
And every day I'll get

I gotta thank the love of my life
Every day and night
For filling up my memory bank
I gotta thank JD, Jim Beam, Mr. Anheuser
For a friday night good time drink
I gotta thank Mama and my Daddy
For eighteen years of them gasin' up the Chevrolet tank
No matter who you are
Everybody's got somebody to thank

No matter who you are
Everybody's got somebody to thank
