When I was a young boy
Growing up in the
ghetto
Hanging out on corners
Singin' with
the fellas
Lookin' for the cute
chicks
Trying to find a bit of fun
Looking
for some trouble
Or anyone who'll give me
some

I was young and crazy
In the
ghetto
Didn't know what my life would be
In
the ghetto
I was dumb and oh so lazy
In the
ghetto
Something had a spell on me
In the
ghetto

You wanna know what I'm talkin'
bout?
Talkin' 'bout ghetto life
Ghetto
Liiiiiiiiiiiife
You wanna know what I'm
singin' 'bout?
Talkin' 'bout ghetto
life
Ghetto Liiiiiiiiiiiife

When I was
a young man
Kind of free and fancy
Met this
little cute girl
She said her name was
Nancy
She had pigtails to her shoulders
She
couldn't have been much older
She taught me
what I had to know
To make a girl not want to
go

She was very kinky
In the
ghetto
She laid her pigtails down on me
In
the ghetto
And I was feeling oh so
sneaky
In the ghetto
I had to see what love
could be
In the ghetto

I knew it all
along
That my game was strong
But I was
wrong that time
I knew I had to pray
And
give myself away
Did you think I was man
enough?
Yeah
Did you think I was smart
enough?
Yeah
Did you think I was strong
enough?
Yeah
Did you think I'd work it
out?

The Ghetto Life

Sing it to ya,
hit it baby baby
Talkin 'bout ghetto
life
You got to get on over
Talkin 'bout
ghetto life

When I was a young
boy
Tenements, slums and corner
bums
Playing tag with winos
The only way to
have some fun
One thing 'bout the ghetto
You
don't have to hurry
It'll be there
tommorow
So brother don't you
worry

Ghetto Life
Talking 'bout ghetto
life
Talking 'bout Ghettoo
Liiiiiiiiife
Ghetto Life, baby
Talkin'
'bout ghetto
life

Life

Ghetto
Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii(Talkin' 'bout ghetto
life)iiioooooo la la la la life
Shoop Shoop
Shoop Shoop, Shoop be doop in the
ghetto
People we got to get over
Shoop
Shoop Shoop Shoop, Shoop be doop in the
ghetto
Talkin' 'bout the life
Shoop Shoop
Shoop Shoop, Shoop be doop in the
ghetto

Where's the place we
funk?
Ghetto Land that's the place we
funk
The place we like to funk
Ghetto Land
that's the place where we funk
Say where the
place we funk
Ghetto Land that's the place
where we funk
The place we like to

Ghetto Land that's the place where we
funk
Ho!

Ghetto Land, we like to funk
Where

Ghetto Land,

Where we funk from day to
day
Ghetto Land Ghetto Land
