Lyrics
In this dirty old part of the city Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in tryin'
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
Watch my daddy in bed a-dying
See his hair a turning grey
He's been working and slavin' his life away
(Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard
(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
(Yeah!) Every night and day
He's been work, work, work, work
(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
Girl, there's a better life for me and you


1: You know it babe and I know it too
2: Somewhere baby, somehow I know it

My little girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due
Watch my daddy in bed a-dying
See his hair a turning grey
He's been working and slavin' his life away
(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
(Yeah!) Every day baby
(Yeah!) Whoa!
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)

Chorus
