The Statler Brothers - Thank You World lyrics

I wanna thank you world for lettin' me belong I'm just one fourth of one small group that sings your songs I know that there are others who have served in bigger ways All I can do is sing your music all my days It makes me grateful just to know to know that I can be Unique and fill a spot beside the other three Without a place here in this world I know that I'd be lost Thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause I may not ever stand like Stonewall Jackson stood But standing on that stage to me is just as good And I may never be a heavy or a great But you've given me the strenght the strenght to pull me weight Oh for the part I sing is truly part of me And it does its part to lock the other parts in key And it does its part to pull to pull that sweet applause So thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause Oh world you've given me a place that I call mine Though I've stepped out of it and I've gotten out of line Sometimes I sing your music slightly out of key And I know I make it harder for the other three Oh I've always done my part the very best I could And it's done with other guys oh world you could You've let me sing your praises world and harp about your faults I thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause It makes me grateful just to know... Without a place here in this world... Thank you world for lettin' me contribute to the cause
