Lyrics

Verse 1:
Boys and girls wanna hear a true story?
Saturday night I was at this real wild party
They had the liquor overflowin' the cup
About 5-6 strippers tryin to work for a buck
And I took one girl outside wit me
Her name was lonni, she went to jr. high wit me
I said, why you up in there dancin' for cash?
I guess a whole lots changed since I seen you last
She said

Chorus:
What would you do if your son was at home
Cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor
Cuz he's hungry, and the only way to feed him
Is to sleep with a man for a
Little bit of money and his daddy's gone
Somewhere smokin' rock now
In and out of lock down
I ain't got a job now
So for you this is just a good time but for me this is what
I call life, mmm

Verse 2:
Girl you ain't the only one wit a baby
That's no excuse to be livin' all crazy
Then she looked me right square in the eye
And said every day I wake up hopin' to die
She said-nigga I know about pain cuz
Me and my sister ran away so my daddy couldn't rape us
Before I was a teenager I been through more shit
Then you can't even relate ta..

Chorus

Verse 3:

What would you do?
Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse
What would you do?
Cuz I wouldn't want my baby to go through what I went
Through
(Come on)
What would you do?
Get up on my feet and stop makin' up tired excuses
What would you do?
Girl I know if my mother can do it, baby you can do it

Chorus:

What would you do if your son was at home
Cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor
Cuz he's hungry, and the only way to feed him
Is to sleep with a man for a
Little bit of money and his daddy's gone
Somewhere smokin' rock now
In and out of lock down
I ain't got a job now
So for you this is just a good time but for me this is what
I call life, mmm
(Til end)
