歌曲名 In The Ghetto

歌手名 Roy Black

As the snow flies

On a cold and gray Chicago morning

A poor little baby child is born

In the ghetto

And his mama cries

Cause if theres one thing that she don't need

It's another hungry mouth to feed

In the ghetto

In the ghetto

People don't understand

The child needs a helping hand

Or hell grow to be an angry young man some day

Take a look at you and me

Are we too blind to see

Do we simply turn our heads

And look the other way

As the world turns

And a hungry little boy with a runny nose

Plays in the street as the cold wind blows

In the ghetto

In the ghetto

And his hunger burns

So he starts starts to roam the streets at night

And he learns how to steal

And he learns how to fight

In the ghetto

In the ghetto

Then one night in desperation

A young man breaks away

He buys a gun steals a car

Tries to run he don't get for

And his mama cries

As a crowd gathers round an angry young man

Face down on the street with a gun in his hand

In the ghetto

In the ghetto

As her young man dies

On a cold and gray Chicago morning

Another little baby child is born

In the ghetto

In the ghetto

And his mama cries

In the ghetto
