Mac Davis - In The Ghetto[00:00:01]

As the snow flies[00:00:11]

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'[00:00:16]

A poor little baby child is born[00:00:19]

In the ghetto[00:00:22]

And his mama cries[00:00:27]

'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need[00:00:32]

It's another hungry mouth to feed[00:00:35]

In the ghetto[00:00:38]

People don't you understand[00:00:43]

The child needs a helping hand[00:00:45]

Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day[00:00:48]

Take a look at you and me [00:00:54]

Are we too blind to see [00:00:56]

Do we simply turn our heads[00:00:59]

And look the other way[00:01:03]

Well the world turns[00:01:07]

And a hungry little boy with a runny nose[00:01:12]

Plays in the street as the cold wind blows[00:01:14]

In the ghetto[00:01:17]

And his hunger burns[00:01:22]

So he starts to roam the streets at night[00:01:27]

And he learns how to steal[00:01:31]

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

In the ghetto[00:01:33]

Then one night in desperation[00:01:39]

A young man breaks away[00:01:40]

He buys a gun steals a car [00:01:43]

Tries to run but he don't get far[00:01:47]

And his mama cries[00:01:52]

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

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

In the ghetto[00:02:02]

As her young man dies [00:02:08]

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

Another little baby child is born[00:02:16]

In the ghetto[00:02:19]

And his mama cries[00:02:28]
