(Mose Allison)

My message this evenin'

Is simple indeed

Wherever you wander

Whatever your breed

There's just one thing baby

That comes from above

When push comes to shove

Thank God for self love



Thank Him, Thank Him

God for self love

Thank Him, Thank Him

God for self love

When push comes to shove

Thank God for self love



When livin' gets heavy

And hope starts to fade

You just can't continue

That old masquerade

Remember the power that comes from above

When push comes to shove

Thank God for self love



Thank Him, Thank Him

God for self love

Thank Him, Thank Him

God for self love

When push comes to shove

Thank God for self love
