Rough & Tough In The Ghetto Lyrics


Boris Gardiner Rough & Tough In The Ghetto

[Verse 1: Intro]
It's rough and tough down here
Way down in the ghetto
Down in the ghetto, oh lord, oh lord
It's rough and tough down here
Way down in the ghetto
Down in the ghetto
Give us a helping hand

[Verse 2]
It's L and damnation
Way down in the ghetto
Down in the ghetto, oh lord, oh lord
There's famine and the land
Way down in the ghetto
Lord, give us a helping hand

[Verse 3]
Our Children have no home
Way down in the ghetto
Down in the ghetto, oh lord, oh lord
All they do is roam
Way down in the ghetto
Give us a helping hand

Listen

[Verse 4]
We're trying to keep alive
Way down in the ghetto
Down in the ghetto, oh lord, oh lord
Oh lord, can we survive?
Way down in the ghetto
Lord, give us a helping hand

[Outro x2]
It's rough and tough down here
Way down in the ghetto
Give us a helping hand
