On a cold and Grey Chicago morn A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto
And his mama cries
Cause there's one thing that she don't need Is another little hungry mouth To feed in the ghetto
Oh people don't you understand This child needs a helping hand He's gonna grow to be An angry young man some day
Well Take a look at you and me Are we that blind to see
Do we simply turn our heads And look the other way
And the world turns
And the hungry little boy With the runny nose Plays in the streets 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 steal And he learns how to fight in the ghetto
Then one night in desperation The young man breaks away He buys a gun and steals a car He tries to run but he don't get far
And his mama cries
A crowd gathers round an angry young man Face down in the street With a gun in his hand in the ghetto
Oh people don't you understand This child needs a helping hand He's gonna grow to be An angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me Are we that blind to see
Do we simply turn our heads And look the other way
And as her young man dies
On a cold and Grey Chicago morn Another little baby child is born in the ghetto
In the ghetto
In the ghetto
In the ghetto
