TLC for the win with the non-album, Left Eye feature version. Sporty Thievz track is like a Weird Al version, similar to "Peaches Ain't Clean"

if it was just a dream, call me a dreamer 2

Personally, I like the Swing Out Sister version the best although they don't do the entire song. It's around 3:25. I have TLC's album though.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Neither.

But I've gotta reply that I'm pretty pissed still. ... why's everybody gotta downgrade pigeons? They have a powerful legacy probably as great as the horse for human interactions (since humans only care about things they can use).

I've gotta make that and those misconceptions stop sometime in my life.

I hate both songs since a scrub could actually be a guy trying to do well (*been there) with less finance than the next guy (usually) inherited. It starts early.

That said...most women will sleep with just about anybody. They won't MARRY "a scrub" so let's just get to the point. ...the songs about money not character
