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 lil 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
|
|
See my daddy in bed, he's dyin'
|
Yeah his hair been turnin' grey
|
He been workin' and slavin' his life away
|
I know
|
|
We gotta work, yeah
|
Work yeah
|
Work yeah
|
We gotta work, work, work, work
|
|
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
|
I know it's true
|
|
My little girl you're so young and pretty
|
And one thing I know is true
|
You'll be dead before your time is through, I know
|
|
Watching my daddy in bed he's dyin'
|
You know his hair been turnin' grey
|
He's been slavin' and workin' his life away
|
Yeah I know
|
That we gotta work, yeah
|
Work
|
Gotta Work
|
We gotta work, work, work, work
|
|
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
|
|
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
|
And you know it's true
