In The Ghetto (在贫民区) (Live in Bielefeld|1969) - Roy Black (罗伊·布莱克)[00:00:00]

Written by：Scott E. Davis[00:00:02]

As the snow flies[00:00:11]

On a cold and gray Chicago morning[00:00:17]

A poor little baby child is born[00:00:20]

In the ghetto[00:00:23]

And his mama cries[00:00:26]

And his mama cries[00:00:28]

Cause if theres 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]

In the ghetto[00:00:43]

People don't understand[00:00:45]

The child needs a helping hand[00:00:48]

Or hell grow to be an angry young man some day[00:00:51]

Take a look at you and me[00:00:57]

Are we too blind to see[00:00:59]

Do we simply turn our heads[00:01:03]

And look the other way[00:01:06]

As the world turns[00:01:10]

And a hungry little boy with a runny nose[00:01:17]

Plays in the street as the cold wind blows[00:01:19]

In the ghetto[00:01:22]

In the ghetto[00:01:25]

And his hunger burns[00:01:28]

So he starts starts to roam the streets at night[00:01:31]

And he learns how to steal[00:01:37]

And he learns how to fight[00:01:38]

In the ghetto[00:01:40]

In the ghetto[00:01:42]

Then one night in desperation[00:01:45]

A young man breaks away[00:01:48]

He buys a gun steals a car[00:01:51]

Tries to run he don't get for[00:01:54]

And his mama cries[00:01:59]

As a crowd gathers round an angry young man[00:02:06]

Face down on the street with a gun in his hand[00:02:08]

In the ghetto[00:02:11]

In the ghetto[00:02:14]

As her young man dies[00:02:17]

On a cold and gray Chicago morning[00:02:23]

Another little baby child is born[00:02:26]

In the ghetto[00:02:31]

In the ghetto[00:02:34]

And his mama cries[00:02:37]

In the ghetto[00:02:43]
