In The Ghetto

(Chorus)

On a cold and grey Chicago morn'

A poor little baby child is born - In the ghetto

On a cold and grey Chicago morn'

A poor little baby child is born - In the ghetto

(Verse 1)

This a ghetto man talk hear the ghetto man sing

Down in a the ghetto where the youth suffering

Ghetto man talk hear the ghetto man sing

Down in a the ghetto them no win

The youth them down a ghetto a suffer

Every morning have fe get up and raise a dollar

Have fe fight fe survive them wan fe prosper

Me want the ghetto youth them a mon fe stand up higher

Tell me what you really never know

The youth them just a cry down in a the ghetto

With no place to live and with no place to go

You no see how them suffer down in a Kosovo

(Repeat Chorus)

(Verse 2)

This a ghetto man talk hear the ghetto man sing

Give all the ghetto youth them the blessing

Ghetto man talk hear the ghetto man sing

Bring all the youth out a sin

Living ina the ghetto it no fun

The youth wan fe carry fe them knife and gun

The drugs them a push but we no wan none

Have fe clean up the ghetto fe we daughter and son

Me no wan see the youth cry

Like ina Calcutta and down a Mumbai

Ca all them a struggle and a try them a try

But what them a go do a when the well run dry

(Chorus)

On a cold and grey Chicago morn'

A poor little baby child is born - In the ghetto

And his mama cries - if there's one thing that she don't need

?its another little hungry mouth to feed - In the ghetto

On a cold and grey Chicago morn' another little baby child is born - In the ghetto

And his mama cries - In the ghetto - And his mama cries - In the ghetto
