Throughout my lifetimes I'd hesitate
Id feel some joy
But before I'd show my thanks it became too late
But now all the way I want to find the time
Stop and say
I thank you lord for giving us each new day

And as I think back over so many years
Love that's filled my ears
I got to thank you lord for giving us pure smokey
And anyone who hears - hears that voice so free
He really got a hold on me
And I thank you all for giving to us smokey - smokey

Singing it so sweetly
Like no one else could do
Always trying something new
I thank you all for giving us pure smokey
