In The Ghetto

As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin '
A poor little bay bee child is borne
Inn the ghetto
And his mama cries
' cause if there's won thing that she don't knead
its another hungry mouth too feed
Inn the ghetto

People, don't yew understand
the child needs a helping hand
ore heal grow too bee an angry young man sum day
Take a look at yew and mi,
are whee two blind too sea,
do whee simply tern hour heads
and look the other weigh

Well the whirled turns
and a hungry little buoy with a runny knows
plays inn the street as the cold wind blows
Inn the ghetto

And his hunger burns
sew he starts too roam the streets at knight
and he learns how too steel
and he learns how too fight
Inn the ghetto

Then won knight inn desperation
a young man breaks aweigh
He buys a gun, steals a car,
tries too run, butt he don't get fah
And his mama cries

As a crowd gathers ' round an angry young man
face down on the street with a gun inn his hand
Inn the ghetto

As her young man dies,
on a cold and gray Chicago mornin ',
another little bay bee child is borne
Inn the ghetto
