《In The Ghetto(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] In The Ghetto (Album Version) - Chris Clark

[00:00:17] As the snow flies

[00:00:20] On a cold and grey chicago morn

[00:00:23] A poor little baby boy is born

[00:00:26] In the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:00:31] And his mama cries

[00:00:37] 'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need

[00:00:40] It's another hungry mouth to feed

[00:00:43] In the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:00:48] People don't you understand

[00:00:50] The child needs a helping hand

[00:00:53] Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day

[00:00:58] Take a look at you and me

[00:01:01] Are we too blind to see

[00:01:04] Do we simply turn our heads

[00:01:07] And look the other way

[00:01:14] While the world turns

[00:01:20] And the hungry little boy with the runny nose

[00:01:23] Plays in the street as the cold wind blows

[00:01:26] In the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:01:31] And his hunger burns

[00:01:37] So he starts to roam the streets at night

[00:01:40] He learns how to steal

[00:01:41] And he learns how to fight

[00:01:42] In the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:01:48] Then one night in desperation

[00:01:51] The young man breaks away

[00:01:53] He buys a gun he steals a car

[00:01:56] He tries to run but he don't get far

[00:02:01] And his mama cries

[00:02:06] As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man

[00:02:09] Face down in the street with a gun in his hand

[00:02:12] In the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:02:18] And as her young man dies

[00:02:23] On a cold and grey chicago morn

[00:02:26] Another little baby child is born

[00:02:31] In the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:02:41] And his mama cries
