Song about Strippers

I recently got the newest Kenny Chesney CD and found a song on it called 'Dancin' forthe Groceries'. Thought it was interesting, and I posted the lyrics below for the group to see.


She's thinking about what her kids are doing
Five miles away, it's almost time for bed
They're brushing teeth and hearing one more story
And in the mirror she paints her lips bright red
She wishes she could call and say she loves them
But the bossman says no calls go out or in
So she puts on a dress that might feel pretty
If she didn't have to take it off again

She's dancin for the Groceries
She's dancin for the rent
She's dancing for the credit cards
That she's already spent
In sequins and in laces
She's dancing for the braces
So her kids can have a perfect smile someday
Smiling while she dances
Is the price she has to pay

They tell her in this job there is no future
So get it while you can 'cause looks don't last
There's money in those pockets for the tak'in
if you do it right it makes the time go fast
[Dancin' For The Groceries lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

The music's loud the drinks are mostly water
What her name is tonight she can't recall
The business men stare at the single mother
Whose smiling while she's staring at the wall

She's dancin for the Groceries
She's dancin for the rent
She's dancing for the credit cards
That she's already spent
In sequins and in laces
She's dancing for the braces
So her kids can a perfect smile someday
Smiling while she dances
Is the price she has to pay

Someday she'll have a house out in the country
Someday she'll see the other side of dawn
And noone will ever know
What is was she did before
She just heard the dj say your on
The lights come up
And they play her song

For many, it should be titled, "Dancin' for the Drugs"!

She's dancin for the Drugs
She's dancin for the Thugs
She's dancing for the Money
That her pimp's already spent
In sequins and a low cut back
She's dancing for the crack
Her kids can wait for dinner
Hungry while she dances
Is the price she has to pay

She's dancin for the Losers
She's dancin for the Pervs
She's dancing for the groping
hands that fondle all her curves
In sequins and a skimpy thong
She's wishin'for the end of song
If this guy had a few more bucks
She'd offer him some backroom sucks
What's the price he'll have to pay?

This is a personal favorite...Shake that by Eminem

Shady, Aftermath
There she goes shaking that ass on the floor
Bumpin and grindin that pole
The way she's grindin that pole
I think I'm losing control

Get buzzed, get drunk, get crunked, get fuucked up
Hit the strip club don't forget ones get your dick rubbed
Get fucked, get sucked, get wasted, shit faceted
Pasted, blasted, puke drink up, get a new drink
Hit the bathroom sink, throw up
Wipe your shoe clean, got a routine
Knowin still got a few chunks on your shoestring
Showin I was dehydrated till the beat vibrated
I was revibed as soon as this Bitch gyrated
And hips and licked them lips and that was it
I had to get Nate Dogg here to sing some shit

Two to the one from the one to the three
I like good pussy and I like good trees
Smoke so much weed you wouldn't beleive
And I get more ass than a toilet seat
Three to the one from the one to the three
I met a bad bitch last night in the D
Let me tell you how I made her leave with me
Conversation and Hennessey
I've been to the muthafuckin mountain top
Heard muthafuckers talk, seen 'em drop
If I ain't got a weapon I'ma pick up a rock
And when I bust yo ass I'm gonna continue to rock
Getcha ass of the wall with your two left feet
It's real easy just follow the beat
Don't let that fine girl pass you byye
Look real close cause strobe lights blind

We bout to have a party (turn the music up)
Let's get it started (Go head shake your butt)
I'm lookin for a girl with a body and a sexy strut
Wanna get it poppin baby step right up
Some girls they act retarded
Some girls are bout it bout it
I'm lookin for a girl that will do whatever the fuck
I say everday she be givin it up

Shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me
Come on girl, shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me
Ohh girl, shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me
Come on girl, shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me

I'm a menace, a dentist, an oral hygentist
Open your mouth for about four or five minutes
Take a little bit of this flouride rinse
Swish but don't spit it, swallow and I'll finish
Yeah me and Nate d-o double g
Looking for a couple bitches with some double d's
Pop a little champagne and a couple E's
Slip it in her bubbuly, we finna finna have a party

Have a party (turn the music up)
Let's get it started (Go head shake your butt)
I'm lookin for a girl I can fuck in my hummer truck
Apple Bottom jeans and a big ol' suck
Some girls they act retarded
Some girls are bout it bout it
I want a bitch that sit at the crib with no panties on
Knows that she can but she won't say no
Now look at this lady all in front of me, sexy as can be
Tonight I want a slut, will you be mine?
I heard you was freaky from a friend of mine

Now I hope you don't get mad at me
But I told Nate you was a freak
He said he wants a slut, hope you don't mind
I told him how you like it from behind

Shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me
Cmon girl, shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me
Ohh girl, shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me
Cmon girl, shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me
We bout' to have a party (turn the music up)
Let's get it started (go ahead shake your butt)
I'm lookin for a girl with a body and a sexy strut
Wanna get it poppin baby step right up
Some girls they act retarded
Some girls are bout it bout it
I'm lookin for a girl that will do whatever the fuck
I say everday she be givin it up

There she goes, shaking that ass on the floor
Bumpin and grindin that pole
The way she's grindin that pole
I think I'm losing control

God, come one

[Eminem makes noises]

I ain't leavin' without you bitch

Come here home with me

And my boy, and his boy, and his boy, and his gurl

haha, Nate Dogg

Frenchie: Thanks. I just downloaded it and added it to my collection of strip club/stripper music and humor. Those that made it to the TUSCL convention in Oct got a 3 CD set. I will include this song in my next revision. To be presented to the guys/gals that make it to the next one. This spring.

The song probably is pretty cool after a couple beers but unfortunately, it's Sunday and I just had a seesion this weekend that included my ATF breaking down from this scenario. I feel bad for her because she wants out but can't possibly make enough $$$ with a high school education and no resume. She really is a great girl, no drugs, got kids and treats me great. But the whole scene is getting to be a struggle for her, very common with dancers.

Rootman, is there any way you can help her make the transition to something else? I don't mean just financially, the thing she probably needs most is guidance - typically these gals have no real world experience and have no idea what other options are available. When my ATF quit dancing she got a job as a waitress in a very popular sports pub and made almost as much as she did as a stripper. She later waitressed in a strip club and did even better. If she's attractive, personable and reasonably intelligent, there are lots of other opportunities out there. But she probably doens't know that.

FONDL: Good point. I was thinking of helping her with some skills guidance. We aren't in a big city with big clubs so SC waitressing won't work. Also, hours are tough in that business when you have kids. We need to sit down and talk about what I can do. I haven't yet because I don't have answers. She thought she'd get a job for $10-15/hour and that coupled with some other sources would work. I did the math, it doesn't close. I'm an experienced business manager with lots of backround in hiring, interviewing etc. so at least I can help with that. I long for the day when you could just go to a buddy and say 'I need a favor', hire this one.

rootman,

I have used and used recently, the "hire this one" favor. Those things still work, but I always tell them, do not mess up and make me look bad for suggesting you. So far, zero problems. I can't say that all have been major companies, but some have been. Just depends on who you know.

Rootman, I've helped my ATF write application letters and resumes many times and helped her go through the want-ads. She's now a massage therapist, which required about 9 months of schooling (all day for 4 days a week.) She runs her own business and makes about $70 an hour, which means she can support herself while only working part time. She goes to school full time. Depending where you are, massage therapy may be a good option. Some of the skills required are surprisingly similar to stripping - eg. pleasant and friendly manner, attractive appearance, comfortable with nudity, touching and a bit of intimacy. I'll be happy to tell you more about it if you think she might be interested.

FONDL: Great idea. Massage therapist seems like a natural that can be learned in a reasonable amount of time. I had no idea it took that many months to learn and get licensed but it's reasonable in the scheme of things. Any idea what school might cost? She's not broke and maybe I can help some if I think I should and it looks like a real plan that could work.
