[00:00.000] 作词 : Mac Davis
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Mac Davis
[00:06.89] As the snow flies
[00:12.22] on a cold and grey Chicago mornin'
[00:15.18] A poor little baby child is born
[00:17.72] in the ghetto
[00:23.36] And his mama cries
[00:29.09] 'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
[00:32.02] It's another hungry mouth to feed
[00:34.78] in the ghetto
[00:40.19] So people won't you understand
[00:42.92] The child needs a helping hand
[00:46.22] or he'll grow to be an angry young man someday
[00:51.47] Take a look at you and me
[00:53.97] Are we too blind to see?
[00:57.18] Do we simply turn our heads and look the other way?
[01:04.31] Well, the world turns
[01:09.95] And a poor little boy with a runny nose
[01:13.21] Plays in the street while the cold wind blows
[01:16.01] in the ghetto
[01:21.43] And his hunger burns
[01:27.22] So he starts to roam the streets at night
[01:30.12] And he learns how to steal, and he learns how to fight
[01:32.71] in the ghetto
[01:38.56] Then one night in desperation
[01:41.40] The young man breaks away
[01:44.31] He buys a gun and he steals a car
[01:46.86] And he tries to run
[01:48.35] But he doesn't get far
[01:52.85] And his mama cries
[01:59.32] As a crowd gathers 'round
[02:01.93] an angry young man face down on the street with a gun in his hand
[02:04.80] in the ghetto
[02:10.62] And as her young man dies
[02:16.30] on a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
[02:19.39] Another little baby child is born
[02:22.03] in the ghetto, in the ghetto, in the ghetto
