Thank you for helping me find this song.. Used to hear it on 107.5 WGPR Detroit late at night.. Sadly after all the years 107.5 is gone. Been turned into another "Pop Hop" station...
30 YEARS AGO I DID NOT KNOW WHO 'MARLENA SHAW WAS UNTIL ME AND MY SISTER AND I WENT TO ONE OF PERFORMANCE IN NEWARK NJ. SHE IS WONDER . I REALLY LOVE ALL OF HER SONGS!!!!!
Saw Her perform live @The Hot Club on South St.,Phila.Pa. The good old days. Bought her album cause I liked the titles of her music. Best Purchase Ever! Couldn't wait to go when I heard she was gonna B in town. Where's She Now? Mun bac woman.Branch214
I'm remembering the days playing in the streets of Philadelphia loving the moment of being so blessed to have known the real times when things were settle and calm loving the moments just to reminiscent. Thanks so much for the song.
Unbelievable. Im from Chicago and turned on Herb Kent and this came on. Im 19 years old and I couldn't change the channel. This song is absolutely amazing. Love it and it spread a huge smile across my face.
@bobbybonner81 I heard Herb Kent play this the other day too! The song made me laugh! I was in the car and couldn't figure out who sang it! It took me until just now to figure out what the song was. Great song!
I have been listening to this song since I was five years old. It is still one of my favorites as an adult. Love Marlena Shaw! Words of Inspiration on relationships! This is why I dee-jay! Old school will never die! DJ Kenny Mc
I just herd this song again and thought of one of my sons trying to be a man too soon I will certainly play this for him and see if understand black women like his grandmothers and his mom.
Wow!! for some reason pieces of this song kept popping up in my head!! when it all came together---the memories followed thank yyou so much for doing this. It's beautiful!!! My 24 yr-old may be singing this soon I told her it would be a great addition to her playlist!!! Somebody do it b4 one of the biggies get a hold of it.
Thank you so much for posting this song. It's been one of my all time favorites since it was released in 1977. Now I have a place to send friends to check it out for themselves. Old school is still the BEST!!!

This piece and Nancy Wilson's "Guess who I saw today" are two of the most endearing "Ladie's come to light" joints ever made, song by two of the time tested, most easy to listen and love to voices in this world....Then you might as well staaaay...
My favorite part of these lyrics, are "U see I wasnt raised like that ya'll I figure If I've got to get and go to work every day then ah, every able body in the household supposed to get and go at least lookin'... " All these great oldies are gold :) I love singing this song alot
