[00:05.341] As the snow flies
[00:10.833] On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' a poor little baby child is born In the ghetto
[00:21.671] And his mama cries 'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
[00:30.245] It's another hungry mouth to feed
[00:33.000] In the ghetto
[00:38.157] People, don't you understand
[00:40.740] The child needs a helping hand
[00:43.899] Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
[00:48.939] Take a look at you and me
[00:51.525] Are we too blind to see
[00:54.807] Do we simply turn our heads
[00:58.401] And look the other way
[01:01.999] Well the world turns
[01:07.688] And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
[01:11.226] Plays in the street as the cold wind blows in the ghetto
[01:18.532] And his hunger burns
[01:24.213] So he starts to roam the streets at night
[01:26.999] And he learns how to steal
[01:28.486] And he learns how to fight in the ghetto
[01:35.319] Then one night in desperation
[01:37.718] The young man breaks away
[01:40.774] He buys a gun, steals a car
[01:43.527] Tries to run, but he don't get far and his mama cries
[01:52.907] As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man
[01:55.637] Face down on the street with a gun in his hand in the ghetto
[02:03.451] And as her young man dies, on a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
[02:11.939] Another little baby child is born in the ghetto
[02:21.874] And his mama cries in the ghetto In the ghetto
