Guns In The Ghetto |
Daddy don’t go out tonight |
Just stay home till morning light |
Me and mamma don’t feel right |
Please hold us tight |
Daddy why did you go to work |
When you know just how much we love you so |
Please come back tomorrow |
They’re giving out guns in the ghetto |
They’re saying they will set you free |
One day I’ll have children of my own |
But I’m afraid they won’t have me |
Mamma, is daddy home |
Why are you crying all alone |
Grandma’s tears have turned to stone |
And I’m all alone |
Mamma isn’t daddy back |
I’m getting scared and that’s a fact |
Why are we all dressed like that |
All in black |
Repeat chorus |
Daddy don’t go out tonight |
Please stay home till morning light |
Me and mamma don’t feel right |
Please hold us tight |
Daddy why did you go to work |
When you know just how much we love you so |
Please come back tomorrow |
Repeat chorus |
Mamma, is daddy home |
Why are you crying all alone |
Grandma’s tears have turned to stone |
And I’m chilled to the bone |
Mamma isn’t daddy back |
I’m getting scared and that’s a fact |
Why are we all dressed like that |
All in black |
Repeat chorus four times |
