Gratitude
When someone does me a little favor
Like saving me a jellybean in my favorite flavor
I'm so grateful, so very grateful
I say Thank You, Thank You, Thank You
If you pass me the mashed potatoes
And remember to put the gravy on the side
I'm so grateful, so very grateful
I say Thank You, Thank You, Thank You
Chorus
Show a little gratitude, make someone smile
It's worth your while and so easy to do
Just a little thank you may be all they need to be guaranteed
To redo their good deed for someone new
If you should warn me, "Watch out! Don't step in that!"
Or tell me I've got spinach stuck between my teeth
You know that I'm grateful, eternally grateful
I say Thank You, Thank You, Thank You
Chorus
When I wake up and walk outside each day
The earth, the sun, the sky... they just blow me away
I'm so grateful, incredibly grateful
I say Thank You, Thank You, Thank You
Thank you! Gracias! (Spanish) Danke! (German) and Merci Beaucoup! (French)
Arigato! (Japanese) That's how I say thanks to you!
Komawoyo! (Korean) Shukran (Arabic) Salamat! (Tagalog - Philippines)
Ngiyabonga (Ndebel -Zimbabwe) Kia ora (Maor -New Zealand/Australia) Thanks a lot!
