《In The Ghetto》歌词

[00:00:00] In The Ghetto - Cunnie Williams (卡尼·威廉姆斯)

[00:00:20] At the snow flies

[00:00:25] On a cold and gray chicago morning

[00:00:29] A poor little baby child is born

[00:00:31] In the ghetto

[00:00:37] And his mama cries

[00:00:43] Cause if there's one thing that she don't need

[00:00:47] It's another hungry mouth to feed

[00:00:50] In the ghetto

[00:00:55] People don't you understand

[00:00:58] The child needs a helping hand

[00:01:01] Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day

[00:01:07] Take a look at you and me

[00:01:10] Are we too blind to see

[00:01:13] Do we simply turn our heads

[00:01:16] And look the other way

[00:01:19] Well the world turns

[00:01:25] And a hungry little boy with a runny nose

[00:01:28] Plays in the street as the cold wind blows

[00:01:31] In the ghetto

[00:01:37] And his hunger burns

[00:01:43] So it starts to roam the streets at night

[00:01:46] Ans he learns how to steal

[00:01:48] Ans he learns how to fight

[00:01:50] In the ghetto

[00:01:55] Then one night in desperation

[00:01:58] A young man breaks away

[00:02:01] He buys a gun steals a car

[00:02:04] Tries to run but he don't get far

[00:02:08] And his mama cries

[00:02:13] As a crowd gathers round an angry young man

[00:02:16] Face down on the street with a gun in his hand

[00:02:19] In the ghetto

[00:02:25] As her young man dies

[00:02:31] On a cold and gray chicago morning

[00:02:35] Another little baby child is born

[00:02:39] In the ghetto
