[00:00:00] In The Ghetto - howard carpendale

[00:00:02] Written by：Mac Davis

[00:00:05] As the snow flies on a cold and grey chicago morning

[00:00:13] Another little baby child is born in the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:00:22] And his mama cries 'cause if there's one thing that she don't need

[00:00:30] It's another hungry mouth to feed in the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:00:38] People don't you understand the child needs a helping hand

[00:00:44] Cause he grow up at angry young man some day

[00:00:49] Take a look at you and me are we to blind to see

[00:00:55] Do we always turn our heads and look the other way

[00:01:01] As the world turns and a hungry little boy with a running nose

[00:01:10] Plays in the street and the cold wind blows in the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:01:18] And his hunger burnes and he starts to run on the streets of nights

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

[00:01:29] In the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:01:35] Then one night in desperation the young man breaks away

[00:01:40] He buys a gun steals a car tries to run but he doesn't get far

[00:01:47] And his mama cries as a crowed gather round an angry young man

[00:01:54] Lying in the street with a gun in his hand

[00:01:57] In the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:02:02] And as her young man dies on a cold and grey chicago morning

[00:02:11] Another little baby child is born in the ghetto in the ghetto

[00:02:21] And his mama cries

[00:02:26] In the ghetto
