I just know the words go something to the effect of "Do you know, where your going to, do you like the things that life is showing you? where are you going to? . . ." PLEASE HELP IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS!!!
I also know Slick Rick sampled this piece in one of his old school songs but I want to know the original artist. I've heard it on the old AM Radio years ago. A female sang it.

It became number 1 in the US. For more information about the song go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theme_from_Mahogany_(Do_You_Know_Where_You're_Going_To).
Lyrics:
Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you
Where are you going to?
Do you know...?
Do you get
What you're hoping for
When you look behind you
There's no open door
What are you hoping for?
Do you know...?
Once we were standing still in time
Chasing the fantasies
That filled our minds
You knew how I loved you
But my spirit was free
Laughin' at the questions
That you once asked of me
Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you
Where are you going to?
Do you know...?
Now looking back at all we've planned
We let so many dreams
Just slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long
Before we'll see
How sad the answers
To those questions can be
Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you
Where are you going to?
Do you know...?
Do you get
What you're hoping for
When you look behind you
There's no open door
What are you hoping for?
Do you know...?
Hope this helps.

Mariah Carey Lyrics
Do You Know Where You're Going To
Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to?

When you look behind you, there's no open doors
What are you hoping for?
Do you know, baby?
