Hi, it would be possible to anybody let me know this (www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwBsNsIuSw4)song lyrics? Thank you all!

This is my attemp:


THANK YOU BABY

I got a girl
And she's sweet as she can be
The sweetest ¿THINNER? peaches
On a Georgia tree
I love her
And she loves me
That's known ¿DOWN THE VALLEY?
She suits me to a tee
Thank you baby
For everything you done for me

Stop before drinking
And running around
Things will be together
Late all my ¿HEAD? ¿BEEN? Down
Thank you baby
For all you done for me
Thank you pretty baby
For everything you done for me

[guitar solo]

I used to run ¿THRU? the streets
¿FOR? night and day
Just like a fool
I threw all my money away
I wanna thank you baby
For everything you done for me
Thank you baby
For everything you did for me

Thank you baby
I wanna thank you
Thank you baby
I wanna thank you
Thank you baby
I wanna thank you
Thank you baby
I wanna thank you
Thank you baby
For everything you done for me

Here's my transcription from the YouTube "video" (see above).

THANK YOU BABY
As sung by Eddie Boyd

I got a gal and she's sweet as she can be.
She's sweeter than the peaches on a Georgia tree.
I love her and she loves me.
There's no doubt about it; she suits me to a tee.
Thank you, baby, for everything you done for me.

She stopped me from drinking and running around.
Since we've been together, I laid all my happy sounds.
Thank you, baby, for all you done for me.
Thank you, pretty baby, for everything you done for me.

[guitar solo]

I used to ramble the streets both night and day.
Just like a fool, I threw all my money away.
I wanna thank you, baby, for everything you done for me.
Thank you, baby, for everything you did for me.

Thank you, baby.
I wanna thank you.
Thank you, baby.
I wanna thank you.
Thank you, baby.
I wanna thank you.
Thank you, baby.
I wanna thank you.
Thank you, baby, for everything you done for me.

I found another version on Spotify:


THANK YOU BABY
As sung by Eddie Boyd on "The Third Degree: 40 Classic Tracks" (2013)

I got a gal that's sweet as she can be.
She's sweeter than the peaches on a Georgia tree.
I love her and she loves me.
There's no doubt about it; she suits me to a tee.
Thank you, baby, for all you've done for me.

I got put in jail on a false pretent. [sic; "pretense"]
She went my bail; I didn't have a cent.
They had my trial and I went free.
You can understand that the girl loves me.
Thank you, baby, for all you've done for me.

Well, she stopped me from drinkin' and a-runnin' around.
Since we've been together, I laid all my happy sounds.
Baby, I love you, and that's true.
I hope, baby, that you love me too.
Thank you, baby, for all you've done for me.

She cooks my breakfast and she serves it in the bed.
… she rub my achin' head.
She stay right there till the doctor comes,
And after he … she holds me in her arms.
Thank you, baby, for all you've done for me.
