In the Ghetto (2009 Remastered Version)歌词

作曲 : Mac Davis

As the snow flies

On a cold and Grey Chicago morn
A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto

And his mama cries

Cause there's one thing that she don't need
Is another little hungry mouth
To feed in the ghetto

Oh people don't you understand
This child needs a helping hand
He's gonna grow to be
An angry young man some day

Well
Take a look at you and me
Are we that blind to see

Do we simply turn our heads
And look the other way

And the world turns

And the hungry little boy
With the runny nose
Plays in the streets
As the cold wind blows in the ghetto

And his hunger burns

So he starts to roam the streets at night
And he learns how to steal
And he learns how to fight in the ghetto

Then one night in desperation
The young man breaks away
He buys a gun and steals a car
He tries to run but he don't get far

And his mama cries

A crowd gathers round an angry young man
Face down in the street
With a gun in his hand in the ghetto

Oh people don't you understand
This child needs a helping hand
He's gonna grow to be
An angry young man some day

Take a look at you and me
Are we that blind to see

Do we simply turn our heads
And look the other way

And as her young man dies

On a cold and Grey Chicago morn
Another little baby child is born in the ghetto

In the ghetto

In the ghetto

In the ghetto
