On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

A poor little baby child is born

In the ghetto, And his mama cries
In the ghetto, And his mama cries
the child needs a helping hand

or he'll grow up to be

an angry young man some day
Well the world turns, and a hungry
little boy with a runny nose
plays in the street as the cold wind

blows, In the ghetto
And his hunger burns

so he starts to roam
the streets

at night
and he learns how to steal

and he learns

how to fight
In the ghetto
And as her young man dies,
on a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
another little baby child is born

In the ghetto, and his mama cries
