Norton Buffalo - Ghetto Hotel lyrics

Ghetto hotel Two dollars a day How can you afford two dollars if you haven't got no pay Ghetto hotel Watch the old men die Drinking their white port makes a man want about to cry Where were these men in their younger days Did they have goals like you and me It seems that they got lost, somewhere along the way And now they'll lose their minds and fall into decay Ghetto hotel Two dollars a day How can you afford two dollars if you haven't got no pay Ghetto hotel Women hangin' round Sellin' their bodies, I say it sure does bring me down Where were these girls in their younger days I bet they was fine as they could be But somehow they fell into this dirty, dirty jungle And now they're crawlin' on their knees Ghetto hotel Two dollars a day How can you afford two dollars if you haven't got no pay Ghetto hotel Little baby cryin' Mama lyin' on the floor with a needle in her arm We've got to look into the future The child can't make it on his own We've got to make his world a place that is worth livin' Maybe things will be better when he's grown We've got to look into the future The child can't make it on his own We've got to make his world a place that is worth livin' Maybe things will be better when he's grown
