In this dirty old part of the city, where the sun refuses 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 it.
Watch my daddy in bed a-dying, watch his hair as it's turning grey,
he's been working and slavin' his life away, oh yes, I know it.
Yea......h..I've been workin' too, my girl.
Yea......h..Every night and day..yeah..
Slavin' my life away..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..
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,
you'll be dead before your time is due, I know it.
Watch my daddy in bed a-dying, watch his hair as it's turning grey,
he's been working and slavin' his life..every night and day,
oh, yes, I know it, baby....yeaaaaah..
I been workin' too hard..yeah, but I got to do it..whoooaaa.
(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..
Girl, there's a better life, for me and you.
(Beleive me baby..I know it, baby..somewhere inside.)
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.
(Beleive me baby..I know it, baby..you know it, too.)(Fade.)
