[00:00.0]In The Ghetto - Christer Sjögren
[00:05.64]As the snow flies
[00:11.18]On a cold and gray Chicago mornin
[00:14.04]A poor little baby child is born
[00:16.6]In the ghetto
[00:22.07]And his mama cries
[00:27.57]'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need
[00:30.25]It's another hungry mouth to feed
[00:33.13]In the ghetto
[00:38.41]People don't you understand
[00:40.89]The child needs a helping hand
[00:44.1]Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
[00:49.23]Take a look at you and me
[00:51.92]Are we too blind to see
[00:55.16]Do we simply turn our heads
[00:58.17]And look the other way
[01:02.74]Well the world turns
[01:09.020004]And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
[01:11.92]Plays in the street as the cold wind blows
[01:14.74]In the ghetto
[01:20.08]And his hunger burns
[01:25.62]So he starts to roam the streets at night
[01:28.31]And he learns how to steal
[01:29.78]And he learns how to fight
[01:31.15]In the ghetto
[01:37.229996]Then one night in desperation
[01:39.68]A young man breaks away
[01:42.55]He buys a gun steals a car
[01:45.33]Tries to run but he don't get far
[01:50.22]And his mama cries
[01:56.16]As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man
[01:58.86]Face down on the street with a gun in his hand
[02:01.47]In the ghetto
[02:06.87]As her young man dies
[02:12.58]On a cold and gray Chicago mornin
[02:15.46]Another little baby child is born
[02:20.65]In the ghetto
[02:26.73]And his mama cries
