[00:21.78] That young boy without a name I'd know his face.
[00:27.54] In this city the kid's my favorite.
[00:32.00] I've seen him.
[00:35.25] I see him every day.
[00:41.27] Seen him run outside looking for a place to hide from his father,
[00:48.99] the kid half naked and said to myself
[00:53.82] "O, what's the matter here?"
[01:00.79] I'm tired of the excuses everbody uses,
[01:05.16] he's their kid I stay out of it,
[01:10.17] but who gave you the right to do this?
[01:17.42] We live on Morgan Street;
[01:19.83] just ten feet between and his mother,
[01:25.12] I never see her, but her screams and cussing,
[01:30.70] I hear them every day.
[01:36.64] Threats like: "If you don't mind I will beat on your behind,"
[01:41.84] "Slap you, slap you silly."
[01:45.49] Made me say, "O, what's the matter here?"
[01:55.61] I'm tired of the excuses everybody uses,
[02:00.35] he's your kid, do as you see fit,
[02:05.08] but get this through that I don't approve of
[02:09.91] what you did to you own flesh and blood.
[02:13.91]
[02:50.04] Oh I have heard the excuses everybody uses
[02:55.42] He's your kid
[02:57.00] do as you see fit
[03:00.30] But get this through
[03:02.44] That I don't approve of
[03:04.96] what you did to your own flesh and blood
[03:08.08]
[03:17.28] "If you don't sit on this chair straight
[03:21.92] I'll take this belt from around my waist
[03:26.71] and don't think that I won't use it!"
[03:31.91] Answer me and take your time,
[03:34.14] what could be the awful crime he could do at such young an age?
[03:40.08] If I'm the only witness to your madness offer me some words to balance out what I see and what I hear.
[03:49.56] Oh these cold and lowly things that you do I suppose you do because he belongs to you
[03:59.31] and instead of love and the feel of warmth you've given him these cuts and sores don't heal with time or with age.
[04:08.88]
[04:12.50] And I want to say
[04:21.03] "What's the Matter here?"
[04:25.51] But I don't dare say.
[04:30.63] "What's the Matter here?"
[04:35.09] But I don't dare say.
