In The Ghetto-Elvis Presley[00:00:01]

As the snow flies[00:00:06]

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'[00:00:12]

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

In the ghetto[00:00:17]

And his mama cries[00:00:23]

'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need[00:00:28]

It's another hungry mouth to feed[00:00:31]

In the ghetto[00:00:34]

People don't you understand[00:00:39]

The child needs a helping hand[00:00:41]

Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day[00:00:45]

Take a look at you and me [00:00:52]

Are we too blind to see [00:00:55]

Do we simply turn our heads[00:00:58]

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

Well the world turns[00:01:12]

And a hungry little boy with a runny nose[00:01:14]

Plays in the street as the cold wind blows[00:01:23]

In the ghetto[00:01:28]

And his hunger burns[00:01:29]

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

And he learns how to steal[00:01:33]

And he learns how to fight[00:01:34]

In the ghetto[00:01:36]

Then one night in desperation[00:01:40]

The 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[00:01:53]

As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man[00:01:59]

Face down on the street with a gun in his hand[00:02:01]

In the ghetto[00:02:04]

And as her young man dies [00:02:09]

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' [00:02:15]

Another little baby child is born[00:02:17]

In the ghetto[00:02:20]

And his mama cries[00:02:28]
