Masterpiece (Album Version) - The Temptations (诱惑演唱组)

Where I was born ev`rything was dull and dingy

I lived in a place they called the inner city

Getting ahead huh was strictly a nono

Cause nobody cares what happens to the folks

That live in the ghetto

Thousands of lives wasting away

People living from day to day

It`s a challenge just staying alive

`Cause in the ghetto only the strong survive

Broken down homes kids strung out

They don`t even know what life`s all about

Stealin` cars robbin` bars

Mugging *** rat infested

And no one`s interested

Kids dodging cars for recreation

Only adds to a mother`s frustration

Breakings folks comin` home

And finding all their possessions gone

Oh it`s an ev`ry day thing - well well - in the ghetto

Oh it`s an ev`ry day thing in the ghetto
