Little Ghetto Boy (Radio Edit)

Lyrics

Little ghetto boy
 Playing in the ghetto street
 Whatcha' gonna do when you grow up
 And have to face responsibility?
 Will you spend your days and nights in the pool room?
 Will you sell caps of madness to the neighborhood?
 Little ghetto boy
 You already know how rough life can be
 'Cause you've seen so much pain and misery
 Little ghetto boy
 Your daddy was blown away
 He robbed that grocery store
 Don't you know that was a sad, sad old day?
 All of your young life
 You've seen such a misery and pain
 The world is a cruel place
 And it ain't gonna change
 You're so young
 You've got so far to go
 But I don't think you'll reach your goal
 Young man, hanging by the pool room door
 Look out...
 Little ghetto boy
 When, when, when you become a man
 You can make things change, hey hey
 If you just take a stand
 You gotta believe in yourself and in all you do
 You've gotta fight to make it better
 You'll see how other people will start believing too
 My son, things will start to get better
 Everything has got to get better
 Everything has got to get better
 Everything has got to get better
 Everything has got to get better
 Everything has got to get better
 Everything has got to get better
 Everything has got to get better
 Everything has got to get better
 Everything has got to get better...
