In the Ghetto |
I was born and raised in the ghetto |
I was born and raised in th ghetto |
I’m a woman, of the ghetto |
Listen to me, legislator |
How do you raise your kiss in the ghetto? |
How do you raise your kiss in the ghetto? |
Feed one child and starve another? |
Tell me, tell me, legislator |
(Ging, gi-gi-gi-gi-ging.) |
How do you make your bread in the ghetto? |
How do you make your bread in the ghetto? |
Take from the souls of the dead in the ghetto |
Tell me, tell me, legislator |
(Ging, gi-gi-gi-gi-ging.) |
Now how do you get rid of rats in the ghetto? |
How do you get rid of rats in the ghetto? |
Eat one black and one white |
Tell me, tell me, legislator |
(Ging, gi-gi-gi-gi-ging.) |
My children learned just the same as yours |
As long as nobody tries to close the door |
They cry with pain when the knife cuts deep |
They’ll close their eyes when they’ll wanna sleep |
(Ging, gi-gi-gi-gi-ging.) |
How do you raise your kids in the ghetto? |
How do you raise your kids in the ghetto? |
Feed one child and starve another? |
Tell me, tell me, legislator |
(Ging, gi-gi-gi-gi-ging.) |
Tell me, people! |
I wanna know! |
