Little Ghetto Boy Lyrics

Little ghetto boy, playing in the ghetto street
Whatcha' gonna do when you grow up
and have to face responsiblity ?
Will you spend your days and nights in the pool room ?
Will you sell caps of madness to the neighborhood ?
Little ghetto boy
You already know how proud life can be
'cause you've seen so much pain and misery
Little ghetto boy
Your daddy was blown away
He robbed that grocery store
Don't you know that was a sad, sad old day ?
All your young life
You've seen such misery and pain
The world is a cruel place
and it ain't gonna change
You're so young
and you've got so far to go
and don't think you'll reach your goal
Young man, little ghetto boy, look at you
Look out son

Little ghetto boy
When, when, when you become a man
you can make things change
eh, if you just take the stand
You've got to believe in yourself in all you do
You've got to fight to make it better
you'll see how other people will start believing too
Then, my son, things will start to get better
Everything (has got to get better)
I declare, I belive...
Everything has got to get better ...
