In The Ghetto (在贫民窟) - Elvis Presley (猫王)[00:00:00]

As the snow flies[00:00:06]

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'[00:00:09]

A poor little baby child is born[00:00:14]

In the ghetto[00:00:17]

And his mama cries[00:00:22]

'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need[00:00:27]

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[00:01:02]

And a hungry little boy with a runny nose[00:01:08]

Plays in the street as the cold wind blows[00:01:11]

In the ghetto[00:01:16]

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[00:01:28]

In the ghetto[00:01:29]

Then one night in desperation[00:01:35]

The young man breaks away[00:01:38]

He buys a gun' steals a car'[00:01:40]

Tries to run' but he don't get far[00:01:43]

And his mama cries[00:01:47]

As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man[00:01:52]

Face down on the street with a gun in his hand[00:01:55]

In the ghetto[00:01:57]

And as her young man dies'[00:02:03]

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin''[00:02:08]

Another little baby child is born[00:02:11]

In the ghetto[00:02:13]

And his mama cries[00:02:21]

END[00:02:22]
