Story Behind The Song

Written as the show stopper ending for the 1995 Rob Satori Live Concert.

Song Description

Tongue in cheek look at life. In all things find the blessing. From work to love, with all gone awry the lesson in the song is thank you for blessing me with this mess.

Lyrics

THANK YOU FOR BLESSING ME

Went to work did overtime share
Talked to the boss in his big easy chair
I said, I need a raise to suffer this sweat
He said, "That's one thing you can forget"
Well my life was going from bad to worse
Felt like I lived in the wrong universe I said,
"I can't afford to even pay attention!"
Need some kind of divine intervention.

I pounded walls and stomped my feet
Headed for history I dared not repeat, but then a
Smile came to my face instead
Threw up my hands, Here's what I said, I said

Thank you for blessing me, thank you for blessing me
Hard lessons may be what I needed
Thank you for blessing, thank you for blessing me

Intro 8

Met a girl, I thought was the one
Thought she and me were havin' so much fun
I popped the question,"would you be mine?"
She said, "Sorry baby, not in this lifetime"

I pounded walls and stomped my feet
Headed for history I dared not repeat, but then a
Smile came to my face instead
Threw up my hands, Here's what I said, I said

CHORUS

INTERLUDE

If you're down, don't stay down long
You could be right you could be wrong
Every lesson's got a blessing inside
Throw up your hands - give this a try, say:
