[00:00.00] 作曲 : Bobby Womack/J.J. Johnson
[00:36.53]I was the third brother of five,
[00:39.75]Doing whatever I had to do to survive.
[00:42.06]
[00:44.56]I'm not saying what I did was alright,
[00:46.93]
[00:48.80]Trying to break out of the ghetto was a day to day
[00:51.85]
[00:53.30]Been down so long, getting up didn't cross my mind,
[00:57.28]I knew there was a better way of life that I was just trying to find
[01:00.53]You don't know what you'll do until you're put under pressure
[01:05.46]
[01:06.28]Across 110th Street is a hell of a tester.
[01:09.02]
[01:10.08]Across 110th Street,
[01:12.14]
[01:14.01]Pimps trying to catch a woman that's weak
[01:16.51]
[01:18.82]Across 110th Street,
[01:20.63]
[01:22.75]Pushers won't let the junkie go free.
[01:25.31]
[01:26.74]Across 110th Street,
[01:29.36]
[01:31.80]Woman trying to catch a trick on the street.
[01:34.79]
[01:36.46]Across 110th Street,
[01:38.52]
[01:41.45]You can find it all in the street.
[01:43.89]
[02:01.23]I got one more thing I'd like to y'all about right now.
[02:05.10]
[02:06.79]Hey brother, there's a better way out.
[02:09.97]
[02:10.91]Snorting that coke, shooting that dope man you're copping out
[02:14.15]
[02:15.40]Take my advice, it's either live or die.
[02:18.46]
[02:19.39]You've got to be strong, if you want to survive.
[02:23.01]
[02:23.76]The family on the other side of town,
[02:27.26]
[02:27.82]Would catch hell without a ghetto around.
[02:31.31]
[02:32.50]In every city you find the same thing going down,
[02:35.49]
[02:36.99]Harlem is the capital of every ghetto town.
[02:39.49]
[02:40.35]Across 110th Street,
[02:43.10]
[02:44.85]Pimps trying to catch a woman that's weak
[02:47.29]
[02:49.66]Across 110th Street,
[02:51.90]
[02:53.40]Pushers won't let the junkie go free.
[02:55.77]
[02:57.58]Across 110th Street,
[03:00.45]
[03:02.26]A woman trying to catch a trick on the street, ouh baby
[03:07.00]Across 110th Street,
