Thanks For My Child Lyrics

You came into my life, You just made everything right.  

 And even though my man has left me behind,  

 I don't regret a thing for having you.  

  

 Thanks for my child,  

 I'm really thanking you, the man above  

 Thanks for my child  

 You brought me so much joy  

 This bundle of love  

 Thanks for my child  

 and though your father, He ran away free.  

 The love I have for you baby, Is the love I have in me  

  

 I'll stay and watch you grow, Yes I will!  

 I'll raise you by myself, A one woman show.  

 You make life worth singing a song  

 (echo)You make life worth singing a song'  

 With you right here with me,  

 I 'll have the strength to go on.  

  

 Thanks for my child  

 Here we are to today, the years have gone by  

 Thanks for my child  

 you grew before my eyes, time after time  

 Thanks for my child  

 I'll hold you in my arms, I hold you close to me  

 rock a bye my baby, I'll rock you to sleep  

  

 I understand your language, Your baby talk  

 You forgot to crawl, Before you walked  

 There you are just looking so beautiful  

 And all the while, you are wrapped in blankets  

 You are my love child.  

  

 Thanks for my child  

 I really thanking you, The man above  

 Thanks for my child  

 You brought me so much joy, This bundle of love  

 Thanks for my child  

 And though your daddy, He ran away free  

 The love I have for you baby  

 Is the love I have in me, Inside of me  

 The love I have in me  

 I just know, I'll never let you go, no, no  

 No, no, no, oh yeh  

 Cause you're my sweet baby  

 Papa can't preach, Papa was a rolling stone because  

 He left his beautiful, Cause he left, us alone  

 But that's OK cause I'm you mother baby  

 I carried you for 9 months, And I'm gonna carry you  

 Until you can carry yourself On your own  

 I love you sweetheart, (child) I love you too mommy
