What Would You Do

Boys and girls wanna hear a true story?

Saturday night was at this real wild party

There was liquor overflowing the cup

About five or six strippers trying to work for a buck, So I

took one girl outside with me Her name was Londi

she went to junior high with me and said

why you up in there dancing for cash?

I guess a whole lot has changed since I seen you last, she said:

What would you do if your son was at home

Crying all alone on the bedroom floor

Cause 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 In and out of lock down

I got a job now

he's out smoking rock now

So for you this is just a good time

But for me this is what I call life

Girl you ain't the only one to have a baby

That's no excuse to be living all crazy

so she stared me right square in the eye

And said, "Everyday I wake up hoping to die."

She said, we gonna know about pain cause

Me and my sister ran away so my daddy couldn't rape us Before I was a teenager

I done been through more shit you can't even relate to

What would you do if your son was at home

Crying all alone on the bedroom floor

Cause 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 In and out of lock down

I got a job now

he's out smoking rock now

So for you this is just a good time

But for me this is what I call life

(What would you do) Get up off my feet and stop making up tired excuses

(What would you do) Get up off my feet and stop making up tired excuses

(What would you do) Get up off my feet and stop making up tired excuses

(What would you do) Get up off my feet

What would you do if your son was at home

Crying all alone on the bedroom floor

Cause 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 In and out of lock down

I got a job now

he's out smoking rock now

So for you this is just a good time

But for me this is what I call life

What would you do if your son was at home

Crying all alone on the bedroom floor

Cause 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 In and out of lock down

I got a job now

he's out smoking rock now

So for you this is just a good time

But for me this is what I call life

What would you do if your son was at home

Crying all alone on the bedroom floor

Cause he's hungry
