Testo In the Ghetto - Bobby Solo
Testo della canzone In the Ghetto (Bobby Solo), tratta dall'album Bobby Folk (Gli Indimenticabili)
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 there is one thing she don't need
Is another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto
People, don't you understand
The child needs a helin' from his hand
He'll grow to be a hungry young man some day
But take a look at you and me
Are we too blind to see?
Do we simply turn our heads
And look the other way?
When 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 scheme and he learns to fight
In the ghetto
Then one night in desperation
The young man breaks away
He buys a gun and he steals a car
And he tries to run, but he don't get far
And his mama cries
As the crowd gather 'round
And the hungry young man face down on the street
With a gun in his hand
In the ghetto
And as her young man dies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
