"I Thank You" was written by Isaac Hayes and David Porter and originally recorded by Sam & Dave in early 1968. It was their final release on Stax Records and it went to #9 on the Billboard charts. ZZ Top covered the song for their 1979 album "Degüello" and released it as single the following year. While it only peaked at #36 (and becoming ZZ Top's second Top 40 hit) - their version would become a staple on classic rock radio.
