| In this dirty old part of the city
|
| Where the sun refuse to shine
|
| People tell me there ain’t no use in trying
|
| My girl you’re so young and pretty
|
| And one thing I know is true
|
| You’ll be dead before your time is due
|
| Oh yeah
|
| Watch my daddy in bed and dying
|
| Watch his hair been turning gray
|
| He’s been working and slaving his life away
|
| Oh yeah, I know it
|
| We gotta get out of this place
|
| If it’s the last thing we’ll ever do
|
| We gotta get out of this place
|
| Girl, there’s a better life for me and you
|
| Believe me girl
|
| You know, you know it’s true
|
| Now my girl you’re so young and pretty
|
