Woman of the Ghetto 歌詞
Woman Of The Ghetto - Phyllis Dillon
Written by:Marlena Shaw/Robert Eugene Miller/Richard Lee Evans
I was born and raised in the ghetto
I was born and raised in the ghetto
I'm a woman of the ghetto
Listen to me legislator
How do you raise your kids in the ghetto
How do you raise your kids in the ghetto
Feed one child and starve another
Tell me tell me legislator
How do you make your bread in the ghetto
How do you make your bread in the ghetto
Take from the souls of the dead in the ghetto
Tell me tell me legislator
Now how do you get rid of rats in the
Ghetto
How do we get rid of rats in the ghetto
Eat one black and one white
Tell me tell me legislator
My children learned just the same as yours
Long as nobody tries to close the door
They cry with pain when the knife cuts deep
They close their eyes when they wanna sleep
How do you raise your kids in the ghetto
How do you raise your kids in the ghetto
Feed one child and starve another
Tell me tell me legislator
Tell me people
I wanna know
Black and agree
I'm a woman of the ghetto
Tell me tell me legislator
