Gerald Levert - She Done Been Lyrics
[intro]You brothasYall forget you got a mamaGot a lady that stick with you through thick and thinBut you dog herAnd you aint been through half the shit she beenYou step in the churchEvery morning, six a.m., up from workDaddy always kept it realTaught you how a man spose to feelNot afraid to cook and cleanAint even into the party sceneBut no matter what you doEvery man that you meetWant his cake and eat it too1 - she been lied to, cheated onThe victim of every sad songHer mother and her fatherDefinition of the perfect daughterBut she cant find a manWho done been half the thingsShe done beenIf you out there raise your handRaise your handCheck it outYou like the thought of makin loveOccassional kisses and a few hugsWant a family, raise some kidsJust like your mamma and your daddy did yeahBut every guy you start to digComes with baggage and no gig, yeah(got no kind of a job)Got a baby mama, and alot of billsYou foot the bill, but he come and go at willRepeat 1Said, give your baby a standing ovationGot her own college educationRaise her babies all aloneAlways in a house but never at a homeRepeat 124 hours in labor (she done been)She been abused by her man (she done been)Out there on the welfare (she done been)Yall dont seem to understand (she done been)Pms ing once a month (she done been)Scrapping up dollars to get the baby lunch (she done been)Left at the alter by her sucker man (she done been)Yall dont seem to understand (she done been)You dont seem to understand (she done been)Called *****es and hoes for no reason (she done been)Getting reeked on by the man she was pleasing (she done been)It was her best friend(she done been)Can you find a man who done been through what she done been yeahRepeat 1
