There are places in Havana that remind me of Savannah
= 103211
Parts of West Virginia that might as well be Kenya
Parts of New York City, parts of Mississippi
Parts of Tennessee, look like another world to me, oh oh oh
Ghetto-o-o-o, might as well be another country
Barrio-o-o-o, might as well be another country
When you look around, you live in another country too
(Too), too, (too), too-ooh
To be hungry in L.A. is just like starving in Bombay
Homeless in Morocco is a shelter in Chicago
Right around the corner, just down the road
Right before your eyes, right under your nose, hey
The ghetto-o-o-o, might as well be another country
Barrio-o-o-o, might as well be another country
When you look around, you live in another country too
(Too), too, (too), too-ooh
INTERLUDE/SOLO
x2
Now the dictionary says that the ghetto is a place
Of minority, and poverty, and overpopulation
We live on this earth together, ain't no separation
When you're looking down, from outer space
Were just a human race, and the world is a
Ghetto-o-o-o, listen every place and every country
Barrio-o-o-o, it's in every place and every country
When you look around, do you see your brother when you
Look around, it's a small world after all
When you look around, you live in another country too
(Too), too, (too), too-ooh
(Ghetto), Jamaica is a ghetto
(Ghetto), Japan is a ghetto
(Ghetto), Americas a ghetto
(Ghetto), Slovakias a ghetto
(Ghetto), South Africas a ghetto
(Ghetto), Brazil is a ghetto
(Ghetto), Israel is a ghetto
(Ghetto).
