In the Ghetto - Chris De Burgh (克里斯·蒂伯)[00:00:00]
And the snow flies[00:00:37]
On a cold and grey Chicago morn[00:00:50]
A poor little baby child is born[00:00:53]
In the ghetto (in the ghetto)[00:00:56]
And his mama cries[00:01:02]
'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need[00:01:08]
It's another hungry mouth to feed[00:01:11]
In the ghetto (in the ghetto)[00:01:14]
People don't you understand [00:01:20]
The child needs a helping hand[00:01:23]
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day[00:01:26]
Take a look at you and me[00:01:32]
Are we too blind to see[00:01:35]
Or will we simply turn our heads[00:01:39]
And look the other way [00:01:42]
And the world turns[00:01:48]
And the hungry little boy with the runny nose[00:01:54]
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows[00:01:57]
In the ghetto (in the ghetto)[00:02:00]
And his hunger burns[00:02:06]
So he starts to roam the streets at night[00:02:11]
He learns how to steal[00:02:15]
And he learns how to fight[00:02:16]
In the ghetto (in the ghetto)[00:02:17]
Then one night in desperation[00:02:24]
The young man breaks away[00:02:26]
He buys a gun he steals a car[00:02:30]
He tries to run but he don't get far[00:02:33]
And his mama cries[00:02:40]
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man[00:02:46]
Face down in the street with a gun in his hand[00:02:48]
In the ghetto (in the ghetto)[00:02:52]
And as her young man dies (in the ghetto)[00:02:57]
On a cold and grey Chicago morn[00:03:04]
Another little baby child is born[00:03:07]
In the ghetto (in the ghetto)[00:03:10]
And his mama cries [00:03:16]
(In the ghetto in the ghetto in the ghetto )[00:03:22]
