She's a ghetto woman waitin' for her man to come home Oh, poor ghetto woman, waitin' for her man to come home She's just a ghetto woman waitin' for her man To come home, to come home A rat run cross the floor, a roach turn up the wall Everything is noisy around her, that don't seem to bother her at all 'Cause she's a ghetto woman, sittin' there all alone She's just a ghetto woman, waitin' for her man
To come home, to come home Yes, the TV on, radio blastin' the news Somebody down the hall, playin' the low down dirty blues My ghetto woman, she's all alone She's just a ghetto woman, waitin' for her man to come home To come home 'Cause she's a ghetto woman, said she's a ghetto woman Oh, ghetto woman, what's on your mind Sometimes I look in your face, can't help but cry
