Yeah man, these folks think just cause I won some
American Idol show, everythang aint the same. Man
you kno they see me on
t.v. or up in da crib
every week. And you think everything is all good.
I mean, it really is all good man.
Keep
securcurcurcurcure.

From hangin
out late in the Elma, to Beverly Hills,
California. From hea-tin up the leftovers,to
becomin a restaraunt
owner.
From a litle
block, from a little hood, to the whole world and
it's all good. And if ya didn't know, i was a star
before
the show, but if it
was....

[hook]
No block, No Ruben
No
hood, No Ruben
No boulevards, No Ruben
No
cornerspots, No Ruben
No stayin up late
nights, tellin mama everything gone be
alright.
And if it wansn't no
yoouuu...
there would be no Ruben.

From
wearin my big brother's clothes, to buyin him a
new wardrobe (yes I did) From listenin to Fred
Hammond, to hangin out
wit Fred Hammond. From
a little block from a little hood, to the whole
world and it's all goood, and if ya didn't know
I
was a star (was a star) before the show
(before the show) but if it
waas...

[hook]
No block, No Ruben
No
hood, No Ruben
No boulevards, No Ruben
No
cornerspots, No Ruben
No stayin up late
nights, tellin mama everything gone be
alright.
And if it wansn't no
yoouuu...
there would be no
Ruben.

Aaaaahaaaaaheeey
This goes out
to the barbershops, the black man's country
club.
And this goes out to the single mothers,
at the laundry mat fooldin covers. Your my
inspiration, and you've been my
motivation.
And that's whhyyyy,I had to do this dedication
cause if it waaaaaaas...

[hook]
No
block, No Ruben
No hood, No Ruben
No
boulevards, No Ruben
No cornerspots, No
Ruben
No stayin up late nights, tellin mama
everything gone be alright.
And if it wansn't
no yoouuu...
there would be no Ruben.
[Repeat]

Hey Ruben let's take em to

If it wasn't for the hood (No

If it wasn't for the boulevards (No

And and the cornerspots (Nooo

Stayin up (late nights) late nights

Ruben. Ay Ruben I don't think they heard you
