Mann-Weil
In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in trying
Now my girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due, I know
Watch my daddy in bed and tired
Watch his hair been turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away, oh yes I know it.
He's been working so hard
I've been working too babe
Every night and day
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
'Cause girl, there's a better life for me and you.

Somehow I know it baby.
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.
Believe me baby
I know it baby
You know it too.
