Walkin' down the street, smoggy-eyed Looking at the sky, starry-eyed Searchin' for the place, weary-eyed Crying in the night, teary-eyed Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Wonder when I'll find paradise Somewhere there's a home, sweet and nice Wonder if I'll find happiness Never give it up now I guess Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto The world is a ghetto
