What is this song!? It's sung by a group of guys, but the chorus is sung by a woman, and it's about a girl the guy knew from high school and her life has gotten really sad... it was really popular like 5-ish years ago I think? It's driving me nuts!

Answer:
is it this?: CITY HIGH | What Would You Do? Lyrics Boys and Girls wanna hear a true story, Saturday night, was at this real wild party. They got the liquor over flowing the cup, About five or six stripers trying to work for a buck and I, Took one girl outside with me Her name was ronnie, she went to junior high with me, I said Why you up in there dancing for cash, You earned a whole lot changed since I seen you last. CHORUS What would you do if your son's at home, Cryin' all alone on the bathroom floor, Coz he's hungry, And the only way to feed him is to, Sleep with a man for a little bit of money, and his daddys gone Somewere smokin' rock now, In and out'a lock down, I ain't got a job now So for you this is just a good time, But for me this is what I call life, Mmm I said, girl you ain't the only one with a baby, That's no excuse to be living all crazy, Then she looked me right straight in the eye, and said, Everyday I wake up hoping to die, she said, you wanna know about pain cuz, Me and my sister ran away, so my Daddy coudn't rape us, Before I was a teenager, I had been through more shit you can't even relate to, CHORUS What would you do, Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse, What would you do, Coz I wouldnt want my baby to go through what I've been through, C'mon what would you do, Get up on my feet and stop making tired excuses What would you do, I know if a mother can do it, baby you can do it CHORUS x3

Yes, that's the one. The group also had a big hit with a song called "Caramel" a few months later. I always thought the guy in the story was quite judgemental - if he were so concerned about the girl's way of life, he could always have offered to help her.
