In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain’t no use in tryin’
verses
(1,2)Now my girl you’re so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
Youll be dead before your time is due i know it
Watch my daddy in bed a-dying
See his hair babe its turning grey
He’s been working slavin his life away
F Bb C
(Yeah) Hes been workin so hard
(Yeah) Ive been workin too
(Yeah) Every night and day
yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Chorus
F Bb C
We gotta get out of this place
F (Gm) C
If it’s the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place cause
Dm
Girl, there’s a better life for me and you
F2 Eb Bb C
