《Ghetto Lullaby(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] shontelle - ghetto lullabye

[00:00:11] hush little shorty don't you cry

[00:00:14] i'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

[00:00:17] when things get rough, let me dry your eyes

[00:00:20] give you the strength, hold your head up high

[00:00:22] when this cold world never do you right

[00:00:25] i'll hold you down through the darkest nights

[00:00:27] so ease your head, let me ease your mind

[00:00:29] i'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

[00:00:32] where shall i begin

[00:00:35] to teach you what could take a lifetime to learn

[00:00:37] no lies will be told,

[00:00:39] with each day the truth will unfold

[00:00:42] picture if you can,

[00:00:44] a mountain so high that you can't see the top

[00:00:47] an ocean so wide,

[00:00:49] you can see where it meets the sky

[00:00:52] well that's how far you're gonna have to go

[00:00:54] hold on tight shorty don't let go

[00:00:57] those rain will fall and those winds will blow

[00:00:59] out in those streets it can be so cold

[00:01:02] hush little shorty don't you cry

[00:01:04] i'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

[00:01:07] when things get rough, let me dry your eyes

[00:01:10] give you the strength, hold your head up high

[00:01:12] when this cold world never do you right

[00:01:14] i'll hold you down through the darkest nights

[00:01:17] so ease your head, let me ease your mind

[00:01:19] i'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

[00:01:22] i'm looking at you,

[00:01:24] a picture of innocence framed within trust

[00:01:27] each river you cross,

[00:01:29] filled with the unknown not so treasureous

[00:01:32] all envy and greed,

[00:01:34] will rip you apart and leave you to bleed

[00:01:37] an incessantly cut you up with no trace of mercy

[00:01:42] no backstabbers and informers

[00:01:44] hate's a disease so let me warn ya

[00:01:47] sharks in the ocean will raise their teeth

[00:01:49] lets all run fast when you see

[00:01:52] hush little shorty don't you cry

[00:01:54] i'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

[00:01:57] when things get rough, let me dry your eyes

[00:01:59] give you the strength, hold your head up high

[00:02:02] when this cold world never do you right

[00:02:04] i'll hold you down through the darkest nights

[00:02:07] so ease your head, let me ease your mind

[00:02:09] i'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

[00:02:21] ooooohhh

[00:02:23] dry your eyes don't you cry

[00:02:28] not tonight

[00:02:32] if you just try you will find your sunrise

[00:02:43] hush little shorty don't you cry

[00:02:47] i'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

[00:02:49] when things get rough, let me dry your eyes

[00:02:52] give you the strength, hold your head up high

[00:02:54] when this cold world never do you right
