Come on, what would you do?
For a little bit of money and his daddy's gone
Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse
Come on
Somewhere smokin' rock now
What would you do?
For a little bit of money and his daddy's gone
They had the liquor overflowin' the cup
I guess a whole lot's changed since I seen you last"
Cuz he's hungry, and the only way to feed him
So for you this is just a good time but for me this is what I call life
Is to sleep with a man
For a little bit of money and his daddy's gone
So for you this is just a good time but for me this is what I call life
Girl, I know if my mother can do it, baby, you can do it
Somewhere smokin' rock now
Cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
Cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
And said, "Every day I wake up hopin' to die"
Is to sleep with a man
Her name was Lonni, she went to Jr. High wit me
What would you do if your son was at home
Is to sleep with a man
Yo, Shorty, you ain't gotta be goin' out like this, man!
Cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
For a little bit of money and his daddy's gone
That's no excuse to be livin' all crazy
About 5, 6 strippers tryin' to work for a buck
I said, "Why you up in there dancin' for cash?
Somewhere smokin' rock now
'Cuz I wouldn't want my baby to go through what I went through
Is to sleep with a man
Somewhere smokin' rock now
Cuz he's hungry, and the only way to feed him
She said, "What would you do if your son was at home
{No, wait, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Somewhere smokin' rock now
Get up on my feet and stop makin' up tired excuses
Cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
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
She said, "Nigga, I know about pain 'cuz
Me and my sister ran away so my daddy couldn't rape us
What would you do?
Girl, you ain't the only one wit a baby
So for you this is just a good time but for me this is what I call life"
Stop the record, yo, stop the record!
In and out of lockdown, I ain't got a job now
For a little bit of money and his daddy's gone
Cuz he's hungry, and the only way to feed him
Is to sleep with a man
What would you do if your son was at home
In and out of lockdown, I ain't got a job now
'Cuz he's hungry, and the only way to feed him
Cuz he's hungry, and the only way to feed him
And I took one girl outside wit me
Then she looked me right square in the eye
Cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
Before I was a teenager, I done been through more shit
In and out of lockdown, I ain't got a job now
What would you do if your son was at home
In and out of lockdown, I ain't got a job now
Holdup!}
You can't even relate to"
What would you do?
In and out of lockdown, I ain't got a job now
