Woman Of The Ghetto - 群星

I want you to get together
Put your hands together one time
And help me pray for one sinner from the Ghetto
Oh Lord we call him Harold Jones
and he plays drums
Would you do it for me one time
Yeah they appreciate you Harold Jones
And playin' bass Lord
You know that he's a sinner
I saw his stash, oh Lord, Lord, Lord would you please
Put a blessin' on brother Ed Boyer
We appreciate ya too
(Hit that note again let me see if it's still right)
And oh Lord from the Ghetto
From a one hundred thousand dollar
house damned
Ghetto!
Lord you don't need to bless him no more
Please get together for Mr. George Gaftcy
I was born, raised in a Ghetto
I was born and raised in a Ghetto
I'm a woman of the Ghetto
Won't ya listen, won't ya listen, won't ya listen to me
Babe, just later
How do ya raise your kids in a Ghetto
How do ya raise your kids in a Ghetto
Do you feed one child and starve another
Won't you tell me legislator
I'm short, true
I know that my eyes ain't blue
But you see I'm a woman from the Ghetto
I'm brown, green, black that is me
Yeah I'm a woman of the Ghetto
How does your heart feel late at night
How does your heart feel late at night
Does it beat with shame
And does it beat with pride
And won't ya tell me, tell me leg is lator
Puts me in the mind of
Commin' cross the water
In a boar
Chained and tied, together
Except no, no they're really not men and women
Just chain 'em up, tie 'em up
Chain 'em up, tie 'em up
Chain 'em up, tie 'em up
Work! Work! Work!
That's where the movement came from
Said Lord, Lord
My children learn just the same as yours
As long as nobody tries to close the door
They cry with pain
When the night cuts in
They even close their eyes
When they wanna sleep
Got peace you say in all that you ask
But self respect is our temporary task
Your baby's standing up there in your Ivory Tower
16 stories stories tall
I know that you've checked out at least one Ghetto, but
I wonder have you lived there at all
Think you'll find no answer
Harlem tells me
Chicago tells me
Washington got some too
I have have been upon the mountain top
