1
If you ever lived in a ghetto
2
And maybe at the close of your day
3
On your front porch you hear the sound of a jukebox
4
From the neighbourhood cafe
5
Well in the noon you may hear the neighbours fussing
6
When a kid breaks a window pane
7
In the night, in the night you may be wakened
8
By the outbound train
9
Well the rich folks they own the big city
10
And they down us who living the way we do
11
But when you're born a child of a poor man
12
You know the ghetto is the only place for you
13
Well if there's such a thing as revolution
14
And there will be if we rise to the call
15
When we build we build we build we build the new Jerusalem
16
There won't be no more ghetto, ghetto at all
17
No there won't be no more ghetto, ghetto at all
