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 strength
The strength to pull my weight
Oh for the part I sing is
Truly part of me
And it does it's part to lock
The other parts in key
And it does it's part to pull
Pull that sweet applause
And I 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 and 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
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
Without a place here in this world
I know that I'd be lost
Thank you world for lettin' me
Contribute to the 'cause
Thank you world for lettin' me
Contribute to the 'cause
