City High Lyrics
"What Would You Do [Remix]"

Boys and girls, wanna hear a true story?
Saturday night, was at this real wild party
They had the liquor overflowin' the cup
About 5-6 strippers trying to work for a buck
And I took one girl outside with me
Her name was Lonnie
she went to junior high with me
I said, "why you up in there dancin for cash?"
I bet a whole lots changed since I seen you last

CHORUS
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 out of lock-down,
I ain't gotta job now
So for you this is just a good time
But for me, this is what I call life mmmm

Girl, you ain't the only one with a baby
That's no excuse to be living all crazy
And 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, cause
Me and my sister ran away so my daddy couldn't rape us
Before I was a teenager
I've done been through more shit you can't even relate to

CHORUS

(RECORD SCRATCHING)
WAIT, HOLD UP, HOLD UP, HOLD UP, HOLD UP, STOP THE RECORD STOP THE RECORD SHORTY YOU DONT HAVETA BE GOING OUT LIKE THIS
What would you do
Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse
What would you do
Cause I wouldnt 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 mamma can do it, baby you can do it

CHORUS x3
