Weve Gotta Get Out Of This Place
In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refused to shine
People tell me there aint no use in tryin
Now my girl youre so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
Youll be dead before your time is due, I know
Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin
Watched his hair been turnin grey
Hes been workin and slavin his life away
Oh yes I know it
(Yeah!) Hes been workin so hard
(Yeah!) Ive been workin too, baby
(Yeah!) Every night and day
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah !)
We gotta get out of this place
If its the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
cause girl, theres a better life for me and you
Now my girl youre so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true, yeah
