I Wanna Thank Everyone Lyrics - Singles - Buddy Jewell

Excuse me, uh, just try understand 

But do you actually have the word yes in your vocabulary 

I guess it started when I was a kid 

If you said I couldn't do, I did 

Always had a stubborn streak, put a wall in front of me 

And I'll find a way to get around it 

There was a friend who said I'd never make the team 

A lot of small town talk that said I'd never leave 

Ah, and you know who you are, you all played a part 

In pushin' me on to my dream 

I wanna thank everyone who ever told me no 

Pack it up and get back home 

It kept me going, knowin' I would prove them wrong 

Yea, I knew it all along 

Without 'em I might have given up a long time ago 

And so I wanna thank everyone who ever told me no 

Played my music for a man behind a desk 

He said, sorry, what you've got, I just don't get 

Ah, but here I am today, standin' on this stage 

And I wonder even now if he gets it yet 

I wanna thank everyone who ever told me no 

Pack it up and get back home 

It kept me going, knowin' I would prove them wrong 

Yea, I knew it all along 

Without 'em I might have given up a long time ago 

And so I wanna thank everyone who ever told me no 

The ones who said I'd never make it 

And those who doubted I could take it 

I'll owe ya one 

I wanna thank everyone who ever told me no 

Pack it up and get back home, boy 

It kept me going, knowin' I would prove them wrong 

Yea, I knew it all along 

Without 'em I might have given up a long time ago 

And so I wanna thank everyone who ever told me no 

Yea, I wanna thank everyone who ever told me no 

We'll get back to you on that son 

Just keep trying 

You know I'm not sure that you guys even look like a star
