	In the ghetto						In the ghetto
3								3
	And his hunger burns						And his hunger burns
14	So he starts to roam the streets at night						so he starts to roam the	14
15	And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight						streets at night	15
6							and he learns how to steal	6
7							and he learns how to fight	7
	In the ghetto						In the ghetto
4								4
	Then one night in desperation						Then one night in desperation
16	A young man breaks away						a young man breaks away	16
17	He buys a gun, steals a car						He buys a gun, steals a car,	17
18	Tries to run but he don't get far						tries to run, but he don't get far	18
5								5
	And his mama cries						And his mama cries
19	As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man						As a crowd gathers 'round	19
20	Face down in the street with a gun in his hand						an angry young man	20

7	On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'							7
8	Another little baby child is born							8
	In the ghetto						In the ghetto
22							In the ghetto	22
