In the Ghetto - The Tribute Co.[00:00:00]
As the snow flies[00:00:13]
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'[00:00:18]
A poor little baby child is born[00:00:21]
In the ghetto[00:00:27]
And his mama cries[00:00:30]
Cause if there's one thing that she don't need[00:00:34]
It's another hungry mouth to feed[00:00:37]
In the ghetto[00:00:40]
People don't you understand[00:00:45]
The child needs a helping hand[00:00:47]
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day[00:00:50]
Take a look at you and me [00:00:55]
Are we too blind to see [00:00:58]
Do we simply turn our heads[00:01:01]
And look the other way[00:01:04]
Well the world turns[00:01:07]
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose[00:01:13]
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows[00:01:16]
In the ghetto[00:01:18]
And his hunger burns[00:01:24]
So he starts to roam the streets at night[00:01:29]
And he learns how to steal[00:01:32]
And he learns how to fight[00:01:34]
In the ghetto[00:01:35]
Then one night in desperation[00:01:40]
A young man breaks away[00:01:43]
He buys a gun steals a car [00:01:45]
Tries to run but he don't get far[00:01:48]
And his mama cries[00:01:51]
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man[00:01:57]
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand[00:01:59]
In the ghetto[00:02:02]
As her young man dies [00:02:05]
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' [00:02:13]
Another little baby child is born[00:02:15]
In the ghetto[00:02:19]
And his mama cries[00:02:24]
