In The Ghetto (在贫民窟) - Elvis Presley (猫王)[00:00:00]
As the snow flies[00:00:05]
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'A poor little baby child is born In the ghetto[00:00:11]
And his mama cries 'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need[00:00:22]
It's another hungry mouth to feed[00:00:31]
In the ghetto[00:00:34]
People don't you understand[00:00:38]
The child needs a helping hand[00:00:41]
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day[00:00:44]
Take a look at you and me [00:00:49]
Are we too blind to see [00:00:51]
Do we simply turn our heads[00:00:55]
And look the other way[00:00:58]
Well the world turns[00:01:03]
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose[00:01:08]
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows In the ghetto[00:01:11]
And his hunger burns[00:01:18]
So he starts to roam the streets at night[00:01:24]
And he learns how to steal[00:01:27]
And he learns how to fight In the ghetto[00:01:28]
Then one night in desperation[00:01:35]
The young man breaks away[00:01:37]
He buys a gun steals a car [00:01:40]
Tries to run but he don't get far And his mama cries[00:01:43]
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man[00:01:52]
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand In the ghetto[00:01:55]
And as her young man dies On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'[00:02:03]
Another little baby child is born In the ghetto[00:02:11]
And his mama cries In the ghetto In the ghetto[00:02:21]
