In The Ghetto - David Nail[00:00:00]
Written by:Mac Davis[00:00:00]
As the snow flies on a cold and gray Chicago morn[00:00:14]
A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto and his mama cries[00:00:24]
Cause there's one thing that she don't need[00:00:42]
Is another hungry mouth to feed in the ghetto[00:00:45]
People don't you understand child needs a helping hand[00:00:55]
He'll grow to be an angry young man someday[00:01:02]
Take a look at you and me are we too blind to see[00:01:09]
Do we simply turn our heads and look the other way while the world turns[00:01:16]
And a hungry little boy with a running nose[00:01:35]
Plays in the streets as the cold wind blows in the[00:01:38]
Ghetto and his hunger burns[00:01:43]
So he starts to roam the streets of night[00:01:55]
And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight in the ghetto[00:01:58]
Then one night in desperation the young man breaks away[00:02:09]
He buys a gun steals a car tries to run[00:02:16]
But he don't get far and his mama cries[00:02:21]
As a crowd gathers round and the angry young man[00:02:35]
Paces down the street with a gun in his hand in the[00:02:38]
Ghetto and as her young man dies[00:02:43]
On a cold and gray Chicago morn another[00:02:56]
Little baby child is born in the ghetto[00:02:59]
