Testo Woman In the Ghetto - Phyllis Dillon
Testo della canzone Woman In the Ghetto (Phyllis Dillon), tratta dall'album Love Is All I Had : A Tribute to the Queen of Jamaican Soul
I was born and raised in the ghetto
I was born and raised in the ghetto
I'm a woman of the ghetto
Listen to me, little slater
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, little slater
How do you make your bread in the ghetto?
How do you make your bread in the ghetto?
Break from the souls of the dead in the ghetto
Tell me, tell me, little slater
Now, how do you get rid of rats in the ghetto?
How do we get rid of rats in the ghetto?
Beat one black and one white
Tell me, tell me, little slater
My children learn just the same as yours
Long as nobody try to close the door
They cry with me when the lights go dim
They close their eyes when they wanna sleep
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, little slater
Tell me, people
I wanna know
Black and I'm free, oh
I'm a woman of the ghetto
Tell me, tell me, little slater
