  • My babysitter used to sing this song all the time while babysitting me when I was around 7, and she tought me the words (she changed some of them though, obviously) and I always had it stuck in my head since then, and this is my first time hearing the real song.

    Scarred. For. Life.

  • Neva getz old jammin

  • people should not cut down these women , it's us men that are acting like sissy's, it is society that we allow to emasculate us as men . why , because making baby's and being a loser with bling is cool..my mom wasnt a whore but we were poor . east side of cleveland. so sucka's talking all that smack need to not just ask somebody , but listen . witty remarks are a shield of your own flaws . we all have em but yet we judge em individually . I LOVE YOU MOMS OUT THERE.sad women have to do mens work

  • @LocknessScottie if a guy leaves thats pussy shit but its not just his fault the girl knew what kinda guy he was and didn't wear a rubber

  • @SL4VE0WNER1904619 girls dont wear rubbers idiot

  • @LochlynD did you not see the word guy in there moron? and there are female condoms dumb fuck virgin

  • @SL4VE0WNER1904619 They're not condoms. They're diaphragms. Sounds like you're the virgin.

  • @LochlynD dude u start shit on youtube grow the fuck up and listen to the song you really need to get laid

  • @LocknessScottie but at the sametime girls dont have to open there legs to these guys like they dont know wat protection if the guy dont want to use tell him to leave or something cause most of these women know how these guys are but they sleep with them anyway thinkin a baby goin to keep a man

  • I would use the money to buy rock, I mean if the baby has enough energy to cry, he's not THAT hungry right? Priorities people jeez

  • one my favorite songs can relate

  • good song but man she must be outta her mind there is so many other things she could do other then sell her body.

  • wow this takes me back to my childhood - remember this on now 40 - something

  • No I'm not listening to this 2011.

    I'm listening to this in 2000BC on my iStone.

  • @fezz349

    Youtube -

    They Sold Their Souls For Music

    Baking Soda (SODIUM BICARBONATE) + hot water + drink = Cancer CURE (One teaspoon a week)

  • Her life sucked, so she banged a crackhead and then feels sorry for herself, while she leaves her starving child on the floor of what I assume is a shitty apartment.

  • i love this this reminds me of Frinney my cousin

    

  • throwbackkkkkkkkkkkk

  • but i feel for those people. Im not saying they are bad people just saying that she obviously had relapse and needs to go back to drug and alcohol classes. Get herself out of that situation. it could feel sometimes that it's impossible but it is completely possible.

  • alright for the people below. Look at my comment. There are thousands of organizations that will help her find a job. If her kid is SOOO bad off where he is then she needs to put him up for adoption because she obviously doesnt care about the kid or she would get a job. She could put him up for adoption and once she gets a stable life get him back. Not that hard to figure out. People most likely in this situation are drug addicts and thats all

  • Comment removed

  • damnnn real talk.

  • @Mikedg Im guessing you haven't heard of how hard people have it? Not everyone is eligible for WIC stop being a prick. Consider yourself lucky for not having to go through something like this. Tons of people have to put up with this in worse so shut your mouth.

    No im listening to this in *some year thats ages away* -thats old to-

    i hate people that just try to get top comments >.<

    please do not thumbs up this comment -___- im just telling people.

  • I have very high morals and would like to say that in this day and age and the economy issue I have respect for women who stripp for money. It's hard to get a decent job and it's hard to get good money. Before you judge think about this. She might've gotten pregnant during school. She might've dropped out to take care of her son. She might've not gone to college because of it. With those things leading up you have very few options....

  • @cookiegal276 most ppl dont get raped and have a baby and keep it... girls who sleep while in school and get preg dont need to strip. its fast easy cash yes, but the govt helps sooo much more. theres wic, food stamps, cash assistance (500 a month for the 1st 5 yrs of the kids life), govt insurence...so, really? not to mention theres grants u can live off of. so girls who turn into moms get paid to go to school, even online school... enough to support! no excuse, just lazyness.

  • reminds me of my life... except my mom didt turn to stripping. she got a real job and went to college

  • Ahh memories Christopher and Paytonn we've had ahard life i'm happy that you two are happy at least.... I love you both.....

  • This song kinda makes me realize the value of a dollar and to be happy that I have food on my table 3 times a day..I feel bad now for not eating my pasta today..

  • Damn, they don't make em' like this anymore...

  • i get real sad when ever i hear this song ):

  • @MosDef87 dancing a pole is not a real job

  • Whos Listeninq To This In 2O11 ?

  • @MusiiccForLifee No I'm listening to this in 1372.

  • @MusiiccForLifee Fuck yeah man used to listen to this shit so long ago and just thought of it the other day

  • @MusiiccForLifee no i'm listening to this in 2003

  • @MrQuinnk19

    stupid comment, if you were listening to it in 2003 why wuold you be on the video to comment that, 6 days ago, in 2011, awkard..

  • @MrQuinnk19 hahhaha its funny because underneath it sais 1 week ago

  • @MusiiccForLifee Um... I am? Do you hart you some Justin Bieber and Rebecca Black? This is actually a pretty decent song.

  • @MusiiccForLifee I'm not, so i'm not going to thumbs up your lame comment:)

  • i love this damn song man it is so frekin wonderful

  • i love this damn song! man it is so frekin wonderful! those boyz are so cute and i love the voice and lyrics so damn much!

  • @MusiiccForLifee I just did....

  • I guess strippers are people too... barely though LMAO

  • @bkastaw ahahahahahhh

    

  • I love how people are like I love this song.

    But when it comes to real life, you see close friends

    going through shit like this. Why don't people

    speak up and help them get out of those situations.

    No one ever does, and they wonder why people be wanting

    to harm theirselves, cause they feel alone. Stop being silent

    people. Speak up.

    I love this song & I just wanted to get this off my chest.

  • This has the best motha-fukin chorus

  • The movie Life brought me hear! <3

  • Every time I hear this song I think of the ending song of the film Life.

  • what yall know bout dis man???? MY ISH!!

  • love this, takes me back

  • What would you do??? um its called Welfare people... :)

  • Okay so for all those people saying you need to get a REAL job or contact a agency i just want to say there is ALOT of people who need jobs today so you have alot of competition just because you go for the interview dosn't meant they will choose you and do you think you'll get the job if your dressed in rags? cus you can't afford new clothes and even if you get lucky enough to get a job dosn't mean it'll pay enough because supporting yourself is hard but supporting someone else is even worse

  • best jam skating song . . . .

  • This song honestly makes me cry. <3 :,(

  • @XxGingerNinjaValXx hell yea reminds me of the past!

  • fuck everyone who says they would never have sex wit a man for money b.c its only to get money to feed our children b.c gettin a job is so fuckin hard

  • @crowles2023 it might be hard to get a job, but you are totally missing the message in this song. There are several ways to feed your children, you never have to sell your body to do so. Get up brush yourself off, and go out there and work at a temp agency, do anything. Saying its too hard is an excuse, and this is what this song is saying.

  • @mirandakelly25 You need MONEY to feed your children and money isn't easy to get. And brush yourself off? you need money to do that Money you cant afford to just toss on other things when it could be used on paying the rent or buying diapers etc just cus you go for a interview DOSNT mean you can get the job alot of people need jobs And not all jobs are high paying ALOT of them you can hardly pay rent with also during the time you are jobless with no income how are you going to feed your child

  • Job's a job, it puts money in the wallet & food on the table! Some people are just too stuck up their own arse's to realise! :D

  • definatley a timeless song!!!! itsa bummer ther aint more songs these days that talk about the real shit in life!

  • yo, but for real, what would you do?

  • good song, but the beat is way too happy for a song with lyrics like this lOl

  • I remember when I was younger I'd sing this and I had no idea what it even meant...not it makes too much sense. x_x

  • its a shame what mixing business and pleasure gets' u you know that City High would have still been together if they wheren't starting to sleep with each other all i can do is shake my head because this was a great group with meaningful lyrics and could actually sing we don't have those elements now and days in our music

  • diz my song 

  • watching this in 2011 ! woot -woot!

  • LIFE

  • just raped the replay button!!!!!!!

  • THUMBS UP IF YU DIDNT EVER KNO DIS SONG BUT WEN YU CLICKED ON IT YU WUS LYKE DAMN THIS SHIT IS GOOD

  • Anyone else realize the part at 1:37 is from Dr. Dre's "The Next Episode"???

  • @Knight8694 hey dude just to let you know, Dre sampled that from this song.

  • @msbarbiebytch69 wrong. of course you can't even spell, so it's no wonder you're so dumb as to believe what you're saying is true.

  • @applesauceman um youtube is not a place to be arguing really? an i can spell i spell how da fuck i want to spell n i can leave my opinion on here jus lyke yu can so fuck off!!

  • @msbarbiebytch69 see, a demonstration of just how stupid you are. you have no right to voice your thoughts because they are akin to a 5 year old. you are wrong. that is all there is to it.

  • 1. if u dont like that song, don't listin to it. <- its that simple

    dont sit here and tell me u dont like it i dont care go away

  • @nosica1 This message needs to be on every video, oh look at me I'm a hater but I won't say it to your face. It's rather silly how many people comment just to hate.

  • omg i watched life yesterday for the first time in like forever and this song played at the end and i was like wow i just broke down

  • It's a song holy fuck stop fighting on youtube

  • @dreamworldlala i hear ya on that one just a song

  • @G8fan1 yeah

  • I cry every time I listen too this song. It's not good too be a prostitute or a stripper. But I'm sure there are different jobs too do, if your in this situation. Seriously..

  • it's just a song chill out

  • hahahahahaahahahahaha

  • nigges problems!

  • This is one of those songs that will never get old.

  • ad eat her shite!!!!

  • shes actualy a prozzy she sais "sleep with a man for a lil bit of money" strippers dont sleep with people for money they just tease and they make more than prozzys well unless you work in amsterdam then everythings cosher (sleeping with people i mean) so im afraid youre all wrong

  • I believe that ALL women should be strippers. I think thats the point of the song, i think it is trying to encourage women to be strippers. god bless america and god bless this song.

  • @dbrochu19 fu

  • @sexymama1379 write like a normal person cause no one can read.

  • i hate when ppl say wht would i do go to my parrents... some ppl dont have tht option like for example i dont have my dad do to death n his side of the family has no part in my life n my mom if she had to when i have a kid n cant support it she would help but some ppl dont evn have both parents. n some ppl have family were they have no way to contact them. or dont wanna ask them for favors or there family is poor to. atleast she has a job n trying to do the best for her kid. n isnt starving him.

  • :(

  • mom used sing this song to in the car all the time

  • It's a fucking song shut the fuck up

  • i can relate to this song, im a 'stripper' but thats what has kept me off the streets since i was 18. to all those who like to hate on dancers or prostitutes, sometimes people dont have a choice and you couldnt understand there situation unless you have been there yourself so keep your nasty comments to yourself!

  • @Dosjha this will always be wrong. youre just uncreative, unmotivated, and primarily, unwilling to do something that might take a lot of time and effort. this will always be the truth.

  • @Dosjha well hopefully things will get better for you, i pretty sure you don't want to be doing this till your mid 30's, anyways best of luck

  • @Dosjha well everybody always has a choice no matter what situation ur in unless ur being forced into prostitution or stripping u always have a choice.

  • @Dosjha no one going to hate my mom was a dancer and prostitute to keep us from going hungry and i grow up out of that life and i am 24 now and i am serg in the USMC i love my job fighting for our country so i understand were you are coming from so you do you until something better comes along good luck

  • @LA5starG5

    I respect your mother more. You get paid for murder.

  • @pbdunl i dont get paid for murder i get paid so you can have the right to say what you want to i get paid so that my country is safe

  • @LA5starG5 lol you grew up out of the ghetto watching people get hurt and entered a giant clan of killers for hire. Interesting. At least your mom's respectable.

  • @panicxitsxbrea your like 14 if i have to be a killer to keep my country and its people safe then i am cuz if it wasnt for us you would not have the freedoms you enjoy today little kid

  • @Dosjha

    whatchu doin on youtube then ! lmfaoo.

  • @Dosjha Even if I was really poor I still wouldn't sink as low as a prostitute.

  • @GirlyIpodTouch I Have 2 Agree w U 100% I would Neva Sink that Low But Then Again I /nobody knows What they Would do Until They Were Put In That Situation Easy 2 tlk about wat ur going 2 do But Saying & Doing r 2 Different things...

  • @GirlyIpodTouch You'd be surprised, to see what you would actually do, if you needed to feed yourself or even feed your baby. Work isnt always cut out the way it used to be, we arent in the scarlet letter day's and you aint no demi moore

  • @Dosjha right if u have to so be it :))))
