Does anyone know the name of this song?

Question

it's a song, i think from the 70's

i think it's soul but i know people used to breakdance to it in the 80's.


i think the words go:

(in falsetto )

children crying
women producing
men go work inside the city.....

everyone's got to make a living.

(then the chorus goes)

heaven and hell
is enough......


if anyone knows the name of the song and the artist it would be appreciated.

.......and its not jenny from the block.

i'm talking about the original song.....the one they copied from.

Answer 1

One And The Same by Everlast

Wish I could see beyond the filthy blue horizon
See what lies ahead of me
Perhaps I'd see the path of my own destruction
And avoid my destiny,

She said, "Heaven and hell are one and the same, boy"
She told me, "Heaven and hell, boy, are one and the same
We all meet somewhere in the middle"
She told me, "Heaven and hell, boy, are one and the same"
I said, "It can't be true"

Wish I could touch you in some totally new fashion
Prove to you girl I'm a man
Now I can't guarantee your complete satisfaction
So I'm goin' do you very best way I can

She said, "Heaven and hell are one and the same, boy"
She told me, "Heaven and hell, boy, are one and the same
We all meet somewhere in the middle"
She told me, "Heaven and hell, boy, are one and the same"
I said, "It can't be true"

Wish I could find some time to stop and smell the roses
But my land lord just won't let me be
My head is full of paranoia, neurosis, trying to consume my identity

She said, "Heaven and hell are one and the same, boy"
She told me, "Heaven and hell, boy, are one and the same
We all meet somewhere in the middle"
She told me, "Heaven and hell, boy, are one and the same"
I said, "It can't be true"

It just can't be true
Children grow and women produce, men go work and some go steal'n
Children grow and women produce, men go work and some go steal
(Heaven & Hell, here on Earth) (8x)

Answer 3

Salt-n-pepa

"Heaven Or Hell"

[CHORUS]
Children play, women produce
Kids killing kids just for the juice
Now Africa is looking for the truth
But it's gonna take a while to enlighten the youth
