Lyrics
In this dirt y old part of the cit y
where the sun re fuse to shine,
peo ple tell me there ain’t no use in tryin’.
My lit tle girl, you’re so young and pret ty.
And one thing I know is true:
you’ll be dead be fore your time is through.
See my dad dy in bed.
He’s dy in’.
You know, his hair is turn ing grey.
He’s been work ing and slav ing his life a way.
We got ta work.
Work.
We got ta work.
Work,
work,
work,
work.
We got ta get out of this place
if it’s the last thing we (G)ev er do.
We got ta get out of this place.
(Dm)Girl, there’s a bet ter life for me and you.
