In this dirty old part of the city
|
Where the sun refused to shine
|
People tell me there ain't no use in tryin'
|
|
Now my girl you're so young and pretty
|
And one thing I know is true
|
You'll be dead before your time is due, I know
|
|
Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin'
|
Watched his hair been turnin' grey
|
He's been workin' and slavin' his life away
|
Oh yes I know it
|
|
(Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard
|
(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
|
(Yeah!) Every night and day
|
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
|
|
We gotta get out of this place
|
If it's the last thing we ever do
|
We gotta get out of this place
|
'cause girl, there's a better life for me and you
|
|
Now my girl you're so young and pretty
|
And one thing I know is true, yeah

You'll be dead before your time is due, I know it

|
Somewhere baby, somehow I know it
|

We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place
|
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
