lyrics

I should write a love song for you ,
I should write a love song for you
and fill it with deep gratitude,
I should write a love song for you

you gave me a shoulder to lean on
you gave me a couch I could sleep on
You helped me get back , up on my feet
You even gave me, some money, to eat on

There’s the time you brought me some gas
When I was broke down on the road
I had no excuses and I couldn’t pay you back
That’s just how it goes, you said that’s just how it goes

The night in Sault Ste. Marie
The border guard took our ID’s
They found a little pot and they threw us in jail
And only I walked free
You said it had nothing to do with me

I glad that my cards make it through
Im glad that you write back to me
Ill keep sending you letters
Keep on writing me back
I’ll come back to Sault Ste .Marie
I’ll be back in one to three
