《In the Ghetto》歌词

[00:00:00] In the Ghetto - The Tribute Co.

[00:00:13] As the snow flies

[00:00:18] On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

[00:00:21] A poor little baby child is born

[00:00:27] In the ghetto

[00:00:30] And his mama cries

[00:00:34] Cause if there's one thing that she don't need

[00:00:37] It's another hungry mouth to feed

[00:00:40] In the ghetto

[00:00:45] People don't you understand

[00:00:47] The child needs a helping hand

[00:00:50] Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day

[00:00:55] Take a look at you and me

[00:00:58] Are we too blind to see

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

[00:01:04] And look the other way

[00:01:07] Well the world turns

[00:01:13] And a hungry little boy with a runny nose

[00:01:16] Plays in the street as the cold wind blows

[00:01:18] In the ghetto

[00:01:24] And his hunger burns

[00:01:29] So he starts to roam the streets at night

[00:01:32] And he learns how to steal

[00:01:34] And he learns how to fight

[00:01:35] In the ghetto

[00:01:40] Then one night in desperation

[00:01:43] A young man breaks away

[00:01:45] He buys a gun steals a car

[00:01:48] Tries to run but he don't get far

[00:01:51] And his mama cries

[00:01:57] As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man

[00:01:59] Face down on the street with a gun in his hand

[00:02:02] In the ghetto

[00:02:05] As her young man dies

[00:02:13] On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

[00:02:15] Another little baby child is born

[00:02:19] In the ghetto

[00:02:24] And his mama cries
