In the Ghetto - Dolly Parton[00:00:00]
As the snow flies[00:00:05]
On a cold and gray Chicago morn'[00:00:11]
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[00:00:28]
It's another little hungry mouth to feed[00:00:31]
In the ghetto[00:00:33]
People can'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[00:00:45]
Take a look at you and me[00:00:49]
Are we too blind to see[00:00:52]
Do we simply turn our heads[00:00:56]
And look the other way[00:00:58]
While the world turns[00:01:03]
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose[00:01:09]
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows[00:01:12]
In the ghetto[00:01:15]
And his hunger burns[00:01:20]
So he starts to roam the streets at night[00:01:25]
And he learns how to steal[00:01:28]
And he learns how to fight[00:01:30]
In the ghetto[00:01:31]
Then one night in desperation[00:01:37]
A young man breaks away[00:01:39]
He buys him a gun steals a car[00:01:42]
Tries to run but he don't get far[00:01:45]
And his mama cries[00:01:48]
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man[00:01:54]
Face down in the street with a gun in his hand[00:01:57]
In the ghetto[00:02:00]
And a young man dies[00:02:06]
On a cold and gray Chicago morn'[00:02:11]
Another little baby child is born[00:02:14]
In the ghetto[00:02:17]
And it's mama cries[00:02:22]
