Thank You (2006 Remaster)

If you ever bought a tape
Purchased a CD
Or a peice of vinyl
DJ`ed my record
Promoted my recored
I wanna thank yall man from the bottom of my heart
Secondly I wanna dedicate this song to yall man
Cuz without yall there is no me Verse 1
I can never turn my back on y`all
So when you call I`ll be there
Cause ya put me where I`m at
Just like that
Signing autographs giving daps to all my folks
Telling little kids don`t follow these *****
See Im`a keep barking
Long as ya`ll bark with me
You know the website
All you gotta do is hit me
Now as much as the girls like me
You would think it make the fellas sick
But they be right with`em
Singing not missing a lick
Hair braided rockin somebody`s jersey
From up top to out west
And down in the dirty
Can `t forget about the Midwest
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 cd, a tape, Ill sign it the leave it
And get a nice big plate of fish
Which is my favorite dish
But without ya
I couldn`t kick it like this
I wanna..
I wanna thank you
For making me who I am
And putting me where I need to be
I wanna thank you
For the opportunity to do my thing in this industry
I wanna thank you
For calling to your local station
Day after day to play my song
If it wasn`t for you
There would be no me
That `s why I wanna ride for you
Forever more
Ohhhh, forever more, oh ohh'
Verse 2
I wanna thank you for the groups that came before me
All of yallin the office that promote me on the streets
All the mom and pop stars that dont get alot of credit
The spot`s in the hood, the first one to set it
All the mixed show DJ` s, please keep it pumpin
Thank you for your support and yes I`m gonna keep it comin
I love how u love that, so I`m givin` back
Cuz yall the ones that kept this playa on track
The reason I`m seen is because of you
The reasons I`m heard and my dreams came true
Now if u ever made a poster, or wrote a fan letter
All I`m tryna do is show you so L-O-V-E
And let you kno without yall, there is no me
JD, JE the whole S.S.D.
Now if you ride for we, then I`mma ride for you
From the bottom of my heart baby tell him what I wanna do
I wanna thank you
For making me who I am
And putting me where I need to be
I wanna thank you
For the opportunity to do my thing in this industry
I wanna thank you
For calling to your local station
Day after day to play my song
If it wasn`t for you
There would be no me
Thats why I wanna ride for you
Forever more
Ohhhh, forever more, oh ohh
