If you ever bought a tape Purchased a C.D or a piece of vinyl Dj'd my record Promoted my record I wanna thank ya'll man from the bottom of my heart Secondly, I wanna dedicate this song to ya'll man Cause without ya there is no me
[Verse 1] I could never turn my back on ya'll cause ya'll put me where I'm at So when you call I'll be there just like that Signing autographs, givin daps to all my folks Telling little kids don't follow these dopes See I'ma keep barking as long as ya'll bark with me You Know the website all you gotta do is hit me, man As much as the girls like me You'd think it make fellas sick But they be right with'em Singing not missin a lick Hair braided rocking somebodies jersey From up top to out west And down in the dirty Can't forget about the midwest Cause that's where I was found That's where I live and Columbus is the town I got the pen You got the paper A c.d. a tape I sign it then leave and get a nice big plate of fish which is my favorite dish But without ya'll I couldn't kick it like this
[Chorus] I wanna thank you For making me who I am and putting me where I need to be I wanna thank you For the opputunity to do my thang in this industry I wanna thank you For callin to your local stations day after day to play my song If it wasn't for you there wouldn't be no me and thats why I wanna ride for you Forever More ......... I just wanna thank you
[Verse 2] I wanna thank you for the groups that came before me All of ya'll in the office that promote me on the streets All the mom and pop store that don't get alot of credit the spots in the hood the first ones that said it All the mix show d'js please keep it pumpin Thank you for your support and yes I'm gonna keep it comin I love how you love that So I'm givin back Cause ya the ones that kept this playa on track The reason I'm seen Is because of you The reason I'm heard and my dreams came true now if you ever made a poster or wrote a fan letter All I'm try'n do is show you some L-O-V-E And that you know without ya there is no me JD,JE, the whole SSD Know if you ride for we Then I'ma ride for you From the bottom of my heart baby tell 'em what I wanna do
