What Would You Do? (Radio Version) (Duet)

In the style of

City High

Lyrics

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 five six
strippers tryin'
to work for a buck
and i

took one girl
outside with me
her name was loni
she went to
junior high with me
i said

why you up in there
dancin' for cash
i guess
a whole lot's changed
since i've
seen you last
she said

what would you do
if your son
was at home
cryin' 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

somewhere smokin'
rock now in and
outta lockdown
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

girl you ain't
the only one
with 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

n#### i know
about pain 'cause
me and my sister
ran away
so my daddy
couldn't r### us

before i was
a teenager
i done been
through more s###
you can't even
relate to

what would you do
if your son
was at home
oh
cryin' all alone
on the bedroom floor
woh woh
'cause he's hungry

and the only way
to feed him is to
sleep with a man for
yeah woh yeah
a little bit of money
and his daddy's gone

somewhere smokin'
rock now
in and outta
lockdown
i ain't got a
job now

so for you this is just
ho oh woh
a good time but for me
this is what i call life
yeah

what would you do
get up on my feet
and let go
of every excuse

what would you do
'cause 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'
tired excuses
what would you do
girl i know
if my mother can do it
baby you can do it

what would you do
if your son
was at home
cryin' all alone
yeah yeah
cryin' all alone
on the bedroom floor
'cause he's hungry

and the only way
to feed him is to
only way to feed him
sleep with a man
for a little
bit of money
and his daddy's gone
no no

somewhere smokin'
rock now
yeah yeah
in and outta
lockdown
i ain't got a job now
yeah

so for you this is
just a good time
but for me
oh no no no no woh
this is what i call life
you said

what would you do
if your son
was at home
cryin' 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

somewhere smokin'
rock now
in and outta
lockdown
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
come on

what would you do
if your son
was at home
cryin' 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

somewhere smokin'
rock now
in and outta
lockdown
i ain't got a job now

so for you
