Be Thankful For What You Got Lyrics

Cover art for Be Thankful For What You Got lyrics by William Devaughn

The song's meaning is very obvious. Be appreciative of your current situation in life even if you don't drive that expensive Cadillac you see your neighbour cruising in ("You may not have a car at all, but remember brothers and sisters, you can still stand tall").

Song Meaning

@mojamma Yes BUT he's also defining that car to a T and talking about how gangsta it is to own one. This is one of those songs that have a cross meaning.
