james "blood" ulmer - ghetto child lyrics
little boy, boy standin’ on a corner
somebody, somebody please, lend a helping hand
i’m just a ghetto child
in this so+called, in this so+called free land
somebody, somebody somewhere
somebody, somebody please, do give a dime
my mother, she’s sick in the bed almost dying
and i ain’t seen my daddy in a long time
[spoken:] now this is the part that move me the most
i know, he said, i know i oughta be in school
but i went to school this mornin’ and the teacher, she told me
when you come back, son, have on your shoes
yes, i’m just a ghetto child
please help a ghetto child
i’m just the ghetto, the ghetto child
in this so+called, in this so+called free land
little boy, little boy standin’ on the corner
somebody, somebody lend a helping hand
i’m just, just the ghetto, the ghetto child
in this ahh, in this uhh, in this free land
