Song Information
"You My Girl" was released in the fall of 2002. Although the song never caught on like her previous smash "My Neck, My Back (Lick It)", it was maybe the tenderest, most real, and best-written song of the album. It is about Khia's deceased mother and her struggle to live without her. The lyrics tell about Khia's mother struggle during her unknown illness, "To your friends and your kins / even sick didn't quit / What's the thanks that you get for the time that you spent / Raising kids paying bills talking shit paying rent." "You My Girl" was released to radio in October 2002 but failed miserably.

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or information:
“Water. Its sunny track in the plain; its splashing in the garden canal, the sound it makes when in its course it meets the mane of the grass; the diluted reflection of the sky together with the fleeting sight of the reeds; the Negresses fill their dripping gourds and their red clay containers; the song of the washerwomen; the gorged fields the tall crops ripening.”
—Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)
“But while ignorance can make you insensitive, familiarity can also numb. Entering the second half-century of an information age, our cumulative knowledge has changed the level of what appalls, what stuns, what shocks.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
