Susan Cadogan - In the Ghetto lyrics
As the snow flies On a cold and a gray Chicago morn' A poor little baby child is born In the ghetto And his momma cries 'Cause there's one thing that she don't need It's another little hungry mouth to feed In the ghetto Oh, people, don't you understand This child needs a helping hand He's gonna grow to be An angry young man some day Woah, take a look at you and me Are we that blind to see? Do we simply turn our heads And the hungry little boy with a runny nose Plays in the streets as the cold wind blows In the ghetto So he starts to roam the streets at night And learns how to steal and he learns how to fight In the ghetto Then one night in desperation Young man breaks away He buys a gun and steals a car He tries to run but he don't get far And his mama cries A crowd gathers 'round an angry young man Face down in the street with a gun inj is hand In the ghetto Oh, people, don't you understand? Oh, this child needs a helping hand He's gonna grow to be An angry young man some day Hey, take a look at you and me Are we that blind to see? Do we simply turn our heads And look the other way? And as her young man dies On a cold and gray Chicago morn' Another little baby child is born In the ghetto, In the ghetto In the ghetto, In the ghetto . |
