[00:04.86] Title:Across 110th Street
[00:10.94] Artist:Bobby Womack
[00:16.74] Album:Jackie Brown

[00:24.94]
[00:35.80] I was the third brother of five,
[00:40.33] Doing whatever I had to do to survive.
[00:44.87] I'm not saying what I did was alright,
[00:48.81] Trying to break out of the ghetto was a day to day
[00:53.21] Been down so long, getting up didn't cross my mind,
[00:57.40] I knew there was a better way of life that I was just trying to find
[01:02.26] You don't know what you'll do until you're put under pressure
[01:06.39] Across 110th Street is a hell of a tester.
[03:07.02][02:58.57][02:48.39][02:39.07][01:36.75][01:27.94][01:17.98][01:10.23] Across 110th Street,
[02:44.86][01:13.93] Pimps trying to catch a woman that's weak
[02:54.21][01:22.76] Pushers won't let the junkie go free.
[01:32.37] Woman trying to catch a trick on the street.
[03:11.37][01:41.40] You can find it all in the street.
[02:01.41] I got one more thing I'd like to y'all about right now.
[02:06.49] Hey brother, there's a better way out.
[02:11.11] Snorting that coke, shooting that dope man you're copping out
[02:15.75] Take my advice, it's either live or die.
[02:19.37] You've got to be strong, if you want to survive.
[02:24.01] The family on the other side of town,
[02:27.95] Would catch hell without a ghetto around.
[02:32.57] In every city you find the same thing going down,
[02:37.72] Harlem is the capital of every ghetto town.
[03:02.57] A woman trying to catch a trick on the street, ouh baby
[03:22.28] Yes he can, oh
[03:26.41] Look around you, just look around you,
[03:30.44] Look around you, look around you, uh yeah
