curtis mayfield – ghetto child lyrics
little child, runnin’ wild
watch a while, you see he never smiles
broken home, father gone
mama tired so he’s all alone
kind of sad, kind of mad
ghetto child, thinkin’ he’s been had
but i can just hear him
in the back of his mind sayin’
didn’t have to be here
you didn’t have to love for me
while i was just a nothin’ child
why couldn’t y’all just let me be
let me be, let me be, let me be
little child, runnin’ wild
watch a while, you see he never smiles
broken home, daddy gone
mama tired and he’s all alone
kind of sad, oh, baby, kind of mad
ghetto child, thinkin’ he’s been had
and i can just hear him sayin’
i didn’t have to be here
you didn’t have to love for me
while i was just a nothin’ child
why couldn’t they just let me be
let me be, let me be, let me be
ain’t got no money
