In The Ghetto Lyric | Elvis Presley |  |  | Elvis: 30 #1 Hits |  |
| | | | |
As the snow flies On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' A poor little baby
child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries 'cause if there's one
thing that she don't need it's another hungry mouth to feed In the
ghetto
People, don't you understand the child needs a helping hand
or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day Take a look at you and
me, are we too blind to see, do we simply turn our heads and look
the other way
Well the world turns and a hungry little boy with a
runny nose plays in the street as the cold wind blows In the ghetto
And his hunger burns so he starts to roam the streets at night
and he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight In the ghetto
Then one night in desperation a young man breaks away He buys a
gun, steals a car, tries to run, but he don't get far And his mama cries
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man face down on the street
with a gun in his hand In the ghetto
As her young man dies, on a
cold and gray Chicago mornin', another little baby child is born In the
ghetto
