We Gotta Get Out Of This Place

In this dirty old part of the city

Where the sun refuse to shine

People tell me there ain't no use in trying

Now my girl you're so young and pretty

And one thing I know is true

You'll be dead before your time is due

I know

Watch my daddy in bed and tired

Watch his hair been turning gray

He's been working and slaving his life away

Oh yes, I know it

He's been working so hard

I've been working too babe

Every night and day

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

We gotta get out of this place

If its the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

'Cause girl, there's a better life

For me and you

Now my girl you're so young and pretty

And one thing I know is true, yeah

You'll be dead before your time is due

I know it

Watch my daddy in bed and tired

Watch his hair been turning gray

He's been working and slaving his life away

I know

He's been working so hard

I've been working too babe

Every day baby

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

We gotta get out of this place

If its the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

Girl, there's a better life

For me and you

Somewhere baby

Somehow I know it baby

We gotta get out of this place

If its the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

Girl, there's a better life for me and you

Believe me baby

I know it baby

You know it too
