Lyrics

[Verse 1: Frank Nitt] First off, let me say it's real love I speak It's my job to make 'em dance, so excuse the beat See it's all about you, I hope you're hearing what I'm sayin' There's only one woman that makes everything okay And that's Ms. Norma, at least that's what they call her Since she start going to church, don't smoke, don't curse She let me do my thing, never press me to change And even if I'm wrong, she bless me the same And that's love from the soul, 'til I'm 80 years old Gotta a room at my moms, some dough and a change of clothes 'Cause that's where my heart is, I know I act retarded sometimes So I had to put it down in a rhyme That I love you more than ever, I told you you're the one You let me do this rap, while you look after my son So I can play late night with the microphone When I hit the jackpot, ma, I'm bringin' it home So you can stomp in the church and give praise to God And know your son's gettin' skrilla from workin' hard That's all, I hope you know I'm proud to be part of you And I wanna make you proud of me, so come on [Verse 2: Dankery Harv] Yeah, it's been 27 years she been there for me And it's going on six, she been there for D Cause see, that's my moms, I love her with open arms So she love me right back, gotta love her for that Ma dukes was around when there was no one else Three kids in the crib, all by herself And when things got bad, moms made it new So I think it's bout time I start praising you And all things you did way back in the day The woman you were, makes me the man today And mama I need that, I'm teaching my seed that And I love it when you giving me positive feedback About the music we create, that's why how you relate to it You being happy really brings something great to it It make me work hard to get it Whatever you got, I hope my daughter can get it 'Cause ain't no woman in the world like you And for that, ma dukes, I applaud you, fo' real
