《In the Ghetto》歌词

[00:00:00] In the Ghetto - Irish Mist

[00:00:23] As the snow flies

[00:00:28] On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

[00:00:32] A poor little baby child is born

[00:00:34] In the ghetto

[00:00:40] And his mama cries

[00:00:46] 'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need

[00:00:48] It's another hungry mouth to feed

[00:00:51] In the ghetto

[00:00:57] People don't you understand

[00:00:59] The child a needs helping hand

[00:01:03] Or he'll grow to be an angry man young some day

[00:01:08] Take a look at you and me

[00:01:11] Are we too blind to see

[00:01:14] Do we simply turn our heads

[00:01:17] The other way

[00:01:24] Well the world turns

[00:01:30] And a hungry little boy with a runny nose

[00:01:33] Plays in the street as the cold wind blows

[00:01:36] In the ghetto

[00:01:41] And his hunger burns

[00:01:47] So he starts to roam the streets at night

[00:01:50] And he learns how to steal

[00:01:52] And he to learns fighthow

[00:01:52] In the ghetto

[00:01:59] Then one night in desperation

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

[00:02:04] He buys a gun steals a car

[00:02:07] Tries to run but he don't get far

[00:02:14] And his mama cries

[00:02:50] As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man

[00:02:53] Face down on the street with a gun in his hand

[00:02:56] In the ghetto

[00:03:01] And as her young man dies

[00:03:07] On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

[00:03:10] Another little baby child is born

[00:03:13] In the ghetto

[00:03:19] And his mama cries

[00:03:24] And his mama cries

[00:03:30] In the Ghetto
