She was five foot three
So attached to me
I could not see her leavin’…
She loved me like a rock
Who’d a’guessed that I’d be grievin’…
I found her post-it note
Stuck to our bathroom mirror
She said she needed space
To get her head together…
I wasn’t in her head
She chose another guy to bed…
So I fell for gin instead…

Wham, bam
Thank ya Ma’am
She really taught me somethin’…
She rearranged my heart
And I didn’t see it…
Didn’t see it comin’…

I guess I tried to numb the ache
With tonic and Bombay
Mighta had some happy times
But I wasn’t there to say…
Then you came and cleared my mind
Suggested that we dance…
Who’da ever thought that I
Could find a real romance?

You loved my two left feet,
Made my gin dreams obsolete…
Thanks to you,
My life’s complete…

Wham, bam
Thank ya Ma’am
You really taught me somethin’…
You rearranged my heart…
And I didn’t see it comin’…

We live our lives from day to day
Sometimes the grind is numbin’…
But the precious times that mean the most,
Are the ones we can’t see comin’…

Wham, bam
Thank ya Ma’am
You really taught me somethin’…
You rearranged my heart
And I didn’t see it comin’…
Wham, bam…wham, bam
Wham, bam…
Thank ya Ma’am…
Love rescues wayward hearts
And we rarely ever, ever see it comin’…
