Thank You

If you ever bought a tape

purchased a CD or a piece of vinyl

DJ 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 cuz with out y'all thereis no me

I can never turn my back on ya'll cause ya'll put me where imat

So when you call I'll be there

Just like that

Signing autographs giving daps to all my folks

Telling little kids don't follow these dopes

see im going keep walking as long as ya'll walk 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'll 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

To 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, I'll sign it the leave it and then

And get a nice big plate of fish

Which is my favorite dish

But without y'all

I couldn't kick it like this

I wanna..

[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 opportunity to do my thing in this industry

I wanna thank you

For callin' 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"

I just wanna thank ya

I wanna thank you for the groups that came before me

All of y'all in the office that promote me on the street

All the mom and pop stores

That don't get a lot of credit

The spots in the hood

The first ones to set it

All mix show DJ's 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 giving back

Cause y'all the ones that kept this playa on track

The reason I'm singing 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 tryin' to do is show you some L.O.V.E

And let you know

Without y'all there is no me, JD, JE the whole S.S.D

Now if you ride for we

Then we gon ride for you

From the bottom of my heart

Baby tell'em what I wanna do

Chorus

(Ohh I wanna thank you,I wanna thank you)

I wanna thank you

To all of ya'll thats been down wit So So Def for so long

Keep showin us love

and we gon keep showin yall love

Know what I'm sayin

I wanna let you know an uh

I wanna thank you

To the man upstairs

We gotta thank you the most

You Know what I am sayin'

If it wasn't for you...
