《In The Ghetto》歌词

[00:00:00] In The Ghetto - Viva La Rock

[00:00:05] As the snow flies

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

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

[00:00:16] In the ghetto

[00:00:21] And his mama cries

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

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

[00:00:32] In the ghetto

[00:00:37] People don't you understand

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

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

[00:00:47] Take a look at you and me

[00:00:50] Are we too blind to see

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

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

[00:01:00] Well the world turns

[00:01:05] And a hungry little boy with a runny nose

[00:01:08] Plays in the street as the cold wind blows

[00:01:11] In the ghetto

[00:01:16] And his hunger burns

[00:01:22] So he starts to roam the streets at night

[00:01:24] And he learns how to steal

[00:01:26] And he learns how to fight

[00:01:27] In the ghetto

[00:01:33] Then one night in desperation

[00:01:35] A young man breaks away

[00:01:38] He buys a gun steals a car

[00:01:41] Tries to run but he don't get far

[00:01:44] And his mama cries

[00:01:49] As a crowd gathers'round an angry young man

[00:01:52] Face down on the street with a gun in his hand

[00:01:55] In the ghetto

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

[00:02:06] On a cold and gray chicago mornin'

[00:02:08] Another little baby child is born

[00:02:11] In the ghetto

[00:02:17] And his mama cries
