We've Gotta Get Out Of This Place

In this dirty old part of the city

Where the sun refuses to shine

People tell me there aint no use in trying

Now my girl your so young and pretty

An one thing I know is true

You'll be dead before your time is due

See my daddy in bed a dying

See his hair is turning grey

He's been working and slaving his life away

He been workin so hard

Every night and every day

Oh I been workin too

(Chorus)

We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

Girl there's a better life for me and you

Now my girl your so young and so pretty

An one thing I know is true

You'll be dead before your time is due

See my daddy in bed a dying

Watch his hair is turning grey

He's been working and slaving his life away

He been workin so hard

Every night and day

(Chorus)

We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

Girl there's a better life for me and you

We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

Girl there's a better life for me and you

We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

Girl there's a better life for me and you
