[momma816]

damn she cold as a mutha!!!!!!!

[MICKEYSMONKEY]

hahaha....she learned a lot since "YES I'M READY" song.....chuckle.

[henrypeckstv]

DON'T MESS WITH MY MAN!!!!!

[feistychick70]

The "jumpoffs" that succeed in snagging him from the wife: The same way that they got him is the SAME WAY that they'll lose him.  LOL

[eddiesfan4life]

I have the man although she had the papers and I dont regret it for a second because like The Volcano 22 said sometimes it is out of necessity that he goes elsewhere especially if she nags and drives him away so think about that the next time you want to get on his case cause when he leaves and says hes got to get some air...well you know the rest!!

[rockball]

To Polytrakstar: You don't have to have papers or anything else for there to be problems. The most eligible, single and best looking man in the world can cause you problems. Lighten up, we've all been hurt before.

[honeycone71]

It's just a song ladies. Relax. Nothing more than Barbara's answer to Betty Wright's cameo on "She's Got Papers On Me'.

[TheVolcano22]

Sometimes a man goes with another woman out of necessity. Maybe because she has papers on him, she stops being loving and dressing sexy, stop giving up the 'cookie' -- always finding an excuse for not doing it...

[theintruder42]

@TheVolcano22 You woman pay attention to what Volcano said,sad but true. You women get your papers and life stop. I know it's not all of you, but alot of you do this, and wonder why we leave or cheat. There some many lonely cookies out there just waiting for a man to take a bite!!!

[blove5000]

Silly song about settling for less. Go ahead my sister. You got a piece of man.

[POLYTRAKSTAR]

you can have the papers and the man, don't need the problems

[mrsbutts215]

she's got papers the house the car the money gas electric water cable and youve got ......to pay for what ....Alimony Do that lol

[Shareeberrie]

This is CRAZY!

[uniquelymine]

the "other women" never ends up with the man! While the wifey got "papers" which translate to house, car, and his money....all the other women got is a stankin behind! No thank you!!

[feistychick70]

@Uniquelymine - You are correct! However, the new generation of homewreckers have gone straight to PLAN B. Get knocked up and hit 'em with child support. Of course, this plan only works if he ACTUALLY has something! For the ones who succeed in luring the husband away from wifey: The same way you got him is the same way you'll lose 'em! LOL

[donnab4real]

@feistychick70 FLMAO BUT THOSE WOMEN DONT C IT THAT WAY, THINKING THEIR CHOCA IS THE BOMB WHEN IT COMES TO SUBSTANCE THY'RE LACKIN, TIME PASS THEN THEIR IN THAT EX WIFE SHOES OR HE REALLY NOT TRUSTING HER AT ALL

[feistychick70]

@uniquelymine - You are correct! And for the ones that succeed in snagging him from the wife: The same way you got 'em is the same way you'll lose 'em! LOL

[msquietone]

lol mrspayton0815 u must of been through this situation before or something u snappin hard! lmao

[MrsPayton0815]

THe bitches who fuck with married are stupid as hell. He will never leave his wife all he will do is tell you a bunch a lies and you have the broken heart on the end. All you bitches is getting is a wet ass!!

[MusicalLyrica]

Barbara, and you sounded so sweet and innocent on "Yes I'm Ready" LOL

[MrSexxxy20]

Barbarba called Betty out completely. She said we spent the whole weekend together so there was no reason for me to call lmao.

[JazzyJ1318]

I promise you! It's alwaysbetter to be the "other woman" been on both sides! Being the other woman is the jam! be sure that you pick a man that can afford you and his wife and family. Less guilt! He'll go home permanently when his energy runs out! His wife dont even want him now! She was dumb for holding on to him why he cheated, now she got to take care of his old useless behind!!

[MsThisisthebest]

I hear you girl! you said a mouth full. I say what ever side you on just make sure you putting it down. cuz everybody gone do what they want anyway. keep your head up ladies we the stronger sex anyway.

[5216boyd]

well this is the way i look at it: (sb) woman to woman-(bm) from his woman to you-(bw)clean up woman-(bm) she got the papers,i got the man-(rd) shes got papers then he ended it with taking applications thats when he was done with them all

[TheRealMsTaye]

These old song are jams, but damn if these women don't sound stupid as hell.

[MrSexxxy20]

YES they do but it's funny. And she called her make up war paint lmao. The sad part is girls really act like this. Betty was bitter, Barbarba basically made it sound like she is a hoe, and Shirley just tried to buy the damn dude. lol

[hughesjr]

Barbara is a businesswoman who never met a provocative situation she didn't like.

[MoralOrder1]

Damn!!! Ain't she cold? Ain't that some shit? Well, these women who are bitter and in a bad marriage needs to listen. You can't hold a man w/ "papers". For real. That won't stop him from f**king around. There are women (h**s) who are willing to get your benefits without footing your responsibility at keeping him straight.

So unfair and sad but true!!!!

But what goes around comes around. Immorality gets you no where.

Barbara Mason's not a h**, but her song is real life.

[blackunity143]

@MoralOrder1 so true 

[dendot57]

@MoralOrder1 I remember this song. Solid soul from days of old...Barbara always had a certain.....ummm what's word, umbleness, when she sings, you can't help but relate...a message for all generations...handle your six, or you may fall victim to the words of this song. Barbara, I wish like hell you were still recording......

[neepl8]

The melody reminds me of a slowed down version of Natalie Cole - "I've Got Love on My Mind"

[bklynshowoff]

Were Betty Write, Barbara Mason, and Shirlely brown kinda going @ it? It seems like it... I love it... This was music...

[bryanb16th]

It's Betty Wright. Shirley did "Woman to Woman" first, then Betty re-did it. Betty did "Clean-up Woman". I can't say if the three were truly beefin' cause I wasn't there. But I can tell you one thing it was nothing like the East coast West coast rivalry from back in the day, where people ended up dead. These ladies kept it somewhat classy. They left it to the music to do the fighting for them.

[hork111]

You said it. Dumb-ass black men shooting each other over a damn song. Every other race must be laughing their asses off at us.

[MrSexxxy20]

You are soooooo right. What's does it have to be us all the damn time to act like idiots.

[MrSexxxy20]

I can't believe East coast West coast beef was going on back them.

[fa55b00]

This here is so REAL!!! We all could relate to a point in our lives where we experienced what this song is saying, either side of the situation

[essentialtee09]

this is every stupid woman's anthem. Some women who will settle for being the "woman on the side" should take heed to that saying "i can do bad all by myself"

[01xman]

You must have been cheated on. Relax... some woman need they man tooken. They aint taken care of they man.

[kalad686]

you are SOOOOOO right...i had to take someone's man cause she kept leavin him and runnin off for stupid reasons. i gave her a chance to get him back but as he tells it "she's a habitual runner" so now he's gettin taken care of like he deserves

[MusicalLyrica]

@kalad686 And what will his NEXT WOMAN say about you. And there will be a NEXT WOMAN, trust!

[byrd4all]

@MusicalLyrica you are so true. the worst mistake of my life was calling another women husband my man. Once a cheat always a cheat.

[Sweetz14u]

i feel you...lmao!

[dieudonneMC]

taken

[browngal1709]

she's speaking the truth!

[sunlion55]

no she didn't say that. She's a hoss. She must have one of them snapper on her . :) She got me.

[thejukejoint]

Go listen to her own answer record "Another Man". She says "Do you remember when I said she's got the papers and I got the man. Well "Another Man" is loving mine. After she did all that stealing him from Betty. He gay. (Karma don't play). LOL Type in Barbara Mason Another Man.

[MUZIKLUVA420]

dang karma a bitch aint it after all that he gay.....lmfao, these klassiks are the greatest

[eddiesfan4life]

Im the other woman and my Boo and I have been together two yrs. I was in both positions being the former wife of a cheater myself and I like it this way ALOT better!! He came to me and asked wat was up and its been on eversince. Hes 54 and Im 39...you cant beat a man with experience and I mean that in every way!!!

[Donnymac]

Barbara Mason made her answer-backs believable. She made you question...hmm was there really beef?

[HONEYBCRISSY]

lol true but it was good beef

[tywill10]

Barbara Mason used to sing a lot of "answer" songs from the other woman's point of view. This song was the answer to "She's Got Papers On Me" as well as answering Shirley Brown's "Woman To Woman" with "From His Woman To You". There was no "beef" between Barbara & the other women. Those songs were made to tell the story from both sides - like an R&B soap opera.

[douwd20]

You should listen to Barbara's follow-up song 'Another Man'. It turns out the man is not the man she thought after all.

[ryalleyne07]

Jean Knight&Premium done a version of She got papers.

[3divina]

You got the man. Now what makes you think he won't go cheat on you?

[naeemah81]

damn shes bold and nasty it like their talking about a dog" shes got papers" .on the other hand why would she want someone who thinks of her of a side job.But im not dumb eithr i to will take heave to what shes saying cause shes being so damn honest

[mcreminisce]

Cat Fight, Yeah!

[mscarol51]

Actually her beef wasn't with Shirley, she was seeing Jimmy Bishop and eventually ended up with him. Jimmy Bishop was a deejay in PHilly and was married to Louise Williams (she was also a deejay, playing gospel music). I always thought all of these songs were directed towards her.

[artformecornelio]

Married women better started listning, this is happening all over the land to this day..INCREDIBLE

[donnab4real]

musical beef at its finest no threats or guns just words to make one think

[eddiesfan4life]

I hate to admit it but I am in Barbaras' shoes right now and I LOVE the hell out of my Boo Boo!! Love you Big Al!!!

[Xamalon]

nothin like 80's trash talk

[redwalls76]

I hope Betty and Barbara did not have a beef

with each other. Please tell me it was all in fun.

[101Capricorn]

i was just thinking that after hearing each other.LOLOL i hope not

[SIMLARRY1]

it was just for money these song sold, and I can say fun. Some rappers do this to this day.

[maileabrilvalnatalie]

This was a good way to tell another woman off back in the days thro music.. this is real music right here.

[Shica1002]

OMG...I love this song..they really knew how to make good music back in the day..

[JanarioW]

Great song, she told betty off ... in a sweet way. "gonna cost him 2 much 2 be free" priceless! I was in them shoes..... not no more!!!!!

[thaddeusjr]

was this real, like a rap battle going back and forth or just them making fun. like r kelly trapped in the closet

[thephone]

brilliant record....love this reply to richard dimples fields 'shes got papers on me'...thanks so much for this

[dicklacock]

Oh damn
