as the snow flies[00:00:05]

on a cold and gray chicago mornin'[00:00:10]

a poor little baby child is born[00:00:13]

in the ghetto[00:00:16]

and his mama cries[00:00:21]

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

it's another hungry mouth to feed[00:00:29]

in the ghetto[00:00:32]

people, don't you understand[00:00:37]

the child needs a helping hand[00:00:40]

or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day[00:00:43]

take a look at you and me,[00:00:48]

are we too blind to see,[00:00:51]

do we simply turn our heads[00:00:54]

and look the other way[00:00:57]

well the world turns[00:01:01]

and a hungry little boy with a runny nose[00:01:07]

plays in the street as the cold wind blows[00:01:10]

in the ghetto[00:01:12]

and his hunger burns[00:01:18]

so he starts to roam the streets at night[00:01:23]

and he learns how to steal[00:01:26]

and he learns how to fight[00:01:27]

in the ghetto[00:01:29]

then one night in desperation[00:01:34]

the young man breaks away[00:01:37]

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[00:01:46]

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

face down on the street with a gun in his hand[00:01:54]

in the ghetto[00:01:57]

and as her young man dies,[00:02:02]

on a cold and gray chicago mornin',[00:02:08]

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

in the ghetto[00:02:15]

and his mama cries[00:02:21]
