Why Wasn't I More Grateful (When Life Was Sweet)

I had angels, a gang of angels by my side

Livin' lucky, golden girl with an easy ride

Little worry, loads of time, yeah

Wasn't it enough, wasn't it, wasn't it enough?

Tell me why wasn't I more grateful?

Why wasn't I more grateful?

Why wasn't I, why wasn't I more grateful

When life was sweet, when life was sweet?

Some people want and want and want what they don't have

'Til it keeps 'em awake at night in their bed just twitchin'

Some people like to complain about every little thing

Some folks just never stop bitchin'

I had a good man I took him for granted

And now I surely, surely, surely, surely miss him

Wasn't it enough? wasn't it, wasn't it enough?

Tell me why wasn't I more grateful?

Why wasn't I more grateful?

Why wasn't I, why wasn't I more grateful

When life was sweet, when life was sweet?

Why wasn't I, why wasn't I?

And it keeps me wonderin' what might've been

Keeps me wonderin' what might've been, yeah

To the Lord more grateful
