Jonny Lang~Thankful

Jonny Lang~Thankful
Featuring Michael MacDonald
From 'Turn Around'

Someone's standing in a welfare line
Or off the freeway with a hungry sign
Someone's stressing 'bout to lose their mind
I gotta be thankful, thankful

Someone just became a single mother
Someone just lost a sister or brother
It's so important that we love each other
And be

Thankful, thankful
I've gotta take the time to say, that I'm
Thankful, thankful
For every single breath that I take
I've gotta be thankful, thankful

Someone's sitting in a prison cell
Wasting away in ta personal hell
Everybody's got their own story to tell
I've gotta be thankful, thankful

Man, I used to think I didn't have a lot
Now I realize just how much I've got
Now every day I'm gonna take the time and stop to be

/Repeat chorus/

Any one of these so easily could have been me
But if it had not been for grace and mercy who knows where I'd be

I've been riding on this roller coaster ride
'Round and 'round I've seen the up and downside
And I'm here to tell you that the secret of life is being

/Repeat chorus/

@Kullman911 You don't know what you are talking about. Johnny Lang is AWESOME!

[khajvah1]

@DshankumMusic i can not tell if he is good or not ( i dont like pop ) but there are many pop singers like he is now(james blunt, maroon 5, etc...).

[DshankumMusic]

@khajvah1 Gospel* It's not like he's dancing around with naked hoes is he? He still is the same soulful man, you can change genres but the soul will never be taken out of him, cos I can still here it and the song still has a good message, being thankful for what you've got. A genre doesn't mean anything, aslong as the artist is good.

Lost his blues touch, but still sounds good

@Kullman911 I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO AGREE WITH YOU. One more time OLD is best. really, i cant compare this with old jonny. This is just another ORDINARY pop song. From blues to pop. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME???

There is no way you can listen to just one Jonny Lang song. You have to go on like a month binge...Then you sleep and repeat.

[carpediematlas]

Such a powerful message in this song ... LOVE this!

[OldBittyGrandma]

I appreciate his relationship with God, and all that...but when I think Jonny Lang, I can't help to think of the big bang and lie to me days...Loved his music back then.

@TheLadybuggrandma I agree!! You can always tell when someone knows the Lord. It shows through their music, or say whatever talent the Lord has blessed them with, but most importantly it shall show through who they are.
