Thanks For My Child
Cheryl Riley

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

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 yeah

'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 okay 'cause I'm your mother, baby


I carried you for nine months, and I'm gonna carry you

Until you can carry yourself on your own

I love you, sweetheart

I love you too, mommy
