Little child, runnin' wild
2
Watch a while
3
You see he never smiles
4
Broken home, father gone
5
Mama tired, so he's all alone
6
Kind of sad, kind of mad
7
Ghetto child, thinkin' he's been had
8
But I can just hear him
9
In the back of his mind sayin'
10
Didn't have to be here
11
You didn't have to love for me
12
While I was just a nothin' child
13
Why couldn't y'all just let me be
14
Let me be, let me be, let me be?
15
Little child, runnin' wild
16
Watch a while
17
You see he never smiles
18
Broken home, daddy gone
19
Mama tired and he's all alone
20
Kind of sad, oh baby, kind of mad
21
Ghetto child, thinkin' he's been had
22
And I can just hear him sayin'
23
I didn't have to be here
24
You didn't have to love for me
25
While I was just a nothin' child
26
Why couldn't they just let me be
27
Let me be, let me be, let me be?
28
Ain't got no money
29
I got to play in the alleys, ain't got no pride
30
Just took everything out of me, I got it sad
31
Got to make it alone
32
Got to get away from home
33
There's ain't no fun, my life I just run
34
Run on, run on, run on ghetto child
35
Run on ghetto child
36
Run on ghetto child
37
Run on ghetto child
38
You're runnin' wild
39
Watch a while
40
You see he never smiles
41
Father gone, alright
