Lyrics

[00:00.54] In this dirty old part of the city
[00:12.05] Where the sun refused to shine
[00:16.24] People tell me there ain't no use in tryin'
[00:21.64] Now my girl you're so young and pretty
[00:27.85] And one thing I know is true
[00:32.14] You'll be dead before your time is due, I know
[00:39.66] Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin'
[00:44.35] Watched his hair been turnin' grey
[00:48.01] He's been workin' and slavin' his life away
[00:52.14] Oh yes I know it
[00:54.67] (Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard
[01:00.33] (Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
[01:04.39] (Yeah!) Every night and day
[01:07.55] (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
[01:10.94] We gotta get out of this place
[01:14.42] If it's the last thing we ever do
[01:18.15] We gotta get out of this place
[01:21.92] 'cause girl, there's a better life for me and you
[01:26.67] Now my girl you're so young and pretty
[01:37.54] And one thing I know is true, yeah
[01:41.87] You'll be dead before your time is due, I know it
[01:47.07] Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin'
[01:53.31] Watched his hair been turnin' grey, yeah
[01:57.06] He's been workin' and slavin' his life away
[02:01.56] I know he's been workin' so hard
[02:04.02] (Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
[02:08.43] (Yeah!) Every day baby
[02:11.12] (Yeah!) Whoa!
[02:15.59] (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
[02:20.24] We gotta get out of this place
[02:23.59] If it's the last thing we ever do
[02:27.12] We gotta get out of this place
[02:31.20] Girl, there's a better life for me and you
[02:35.73] Somewhere baby, somehow I know it
[02:42.67] We gotta get out of this place
[02:46.77] If it's the last thing we ever do
[02:49.92] We gotta get out of this place
[02:53.82] Girl, there's a better life for me and you
[02:58.75] Believe me baby

[03:05.90]
