about

I wrote this song for a girl group associated with rapper T.I. and Tiny Cottle in ATL. OMG girls. My wife and I went down to Jonesboro, GA and chatted with Tiny's mom, Diane Pope, for a while...a gracious lady. She was married to the late, great Charles Pope, the last original member of the legendary TAMS ("What Kind of Fool"). Well, they didn't take the song, it didn't have lyrics at the time, so the instrumental sat around for a few years and I finally just decided to go ahead and try and finish it.

lyrics

Well you know this much is true
I am telling you
with shorty we become one
lets me
have my fun
(Next thing you know)
All my dreams come true
(And you know)
Will be with you
my shorty is always there
brings dreams beyond compare
my shorty love

love my shorty love my shorty love
(love my shorty)

Well you know this much is true
I am telling you
no choking crusts of bread
says all God’s children be fed
(Next thing you know)
All these dreams come true
(And you know)
All the dreams of youth
My shorty will understand
with me all over this land
my shortly love

love my shorty love my shorty love
(love my shorty)
