David Gates - Tankin You Sweet Baby James Lyrics

There is a man and his guitar
Givin' a lifetime of song
And when he comes on your radio
Soon you'll be singin' along

He does it pure and simply put
Never no musical games
We've got an American pleasure here
I'm thankin' you Sweet Baby James

He started it all with fire and rain
And took us to old Mexico
The Sun never does go down on him
You hear him wherever you go

He showers the people with his love
And not much for fortunes and fames
You've got a friend in all of us
I'm thankin' you Sweet Baby James

Who knows from where the music comes
A mystery how it gets here
Some of us try to give it life
And some of us listen anc cheer

The songwriters' heaven award show comes
And they start to call out the names
Everyone wants the envelope, please
That says on it Sweet Baby James

I'm thankin' you Sweet Baby James
