《In the Ghetto》歌词

[00:00:00] In the Ghetto - Chris De Burgh (克里斯·蒂伯)

[00:00:37] And the snow flies

[00:00:50] On a cold and grey Chicago morn

[00:00:53] A poor little baby child is born

[00:00:56] In the ghetto (in the ghetto)

[00:01:02] And his mama cries

[00:01:08] 'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need

[00:01:11] It's another hungry mouth to feed

[00:01:14] In the ghetto (in the ghetto)

[00:01:20] People don't you understand

[00:01:23] The child needs a helping hand

[00:01:26] Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day

[00:01:32] Take a look at you and me

[00:01:35] Are we too blind to see

[00:01:39] Or will we simply turn our heads

[00:01:42] And look the other way

[00:01:48] And the world turns

[00:01:54] And the hungry little boy with the runny nose

[00:01:57] Plays in the street as the cold wind blows

[00:02:00] In the ghetto (in the ghetto)

[00:02:06] And his hunger burns

[00:02:11] So he starts to roam the streets at night

[00:02:15] He learns how to steal

[00:02:16] And he learns how to fight

[00:02:17] In the ghetto (in the ghetto)

[00:02:24] Then one night in desperation

[00:02:26] The young man breaks away

[00:02:30] He buys a gun he steals a car

[00:02:33] He tries to run but he don't get far

[00:02:40] And his mama cries

[00:02:46] As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man

[00:02:48] Face down in the street with a gun in his hand

[00:02:52] In the ghetto (in the ghetto)

[00:02:57] And as her young man dies (in the ghetto)

[00:03:04] On a cold and grey Chicago morn

[00:03:07] Another little baby child is born

[00:03:10] In the ghetto (in the ghetto)

[00:03:16] And his mama cries

[00:03:22] (In the ghetto in the ghetto in the ghetto )
