Poverty And Misery In The Ghetto |
Poverty, misery in the ghetto |
Poverty, misery in the ghetto |
Born in Jamaica in the middle of the ghetto |
I never know happiness, oooh yes |
'Cause life in the ghetto, is only filled with pain |
Poverty and pain every day, each and every day |
Yoo-hoo-hoo-ooh |
The mothers are crying, how their sons they are dying |
Sisters have all gone astray, every day |
'Cause poverty steps through the door |
And love flies through the window |
Just like a bird love flies away, in the skies away |
Yoo-hoo-hoo-ooh |
Poverty, misery in the ghetto |
Poverty, misery in the ghetto |
Yoo-hoo-hoo-ooh |
The mothers are crying, how their sons they are dying |
Sisters have all gone astray, every day |
'Cause poverty steps through the door |
And love flies through the window |
Just like a bird love flies away, in the skies away |
Yoo-hoo-hoo-ooh |
Poverty |
