{Ghetto Fabulous Joe} |
|
{Shaggy} |
|
All the children sing {Uh} |
|
I'm a ghetto child |
|
I'm a ghetto child (Check it, out) |
|
There's a world out there that I wanna see |
|
There's a man that I'm destined to be |
|
I won't be stopped by the ghetto streets |
|
I believe inside that I can't be beat |
|
This life could be a ball and chain |
|
If you let yourself get caught in the game |
|
I had some friends who sold drugs for dough |
|
But I don't intend to go down that road |
|
Just because I'm a ghetto child |
|
I won't live down to your expectations (No, no) |
|
Just believe that a ghetto child |
|
Can rise in the highest celebration (Oh) |
|
Know that I am a ghetto child |
|
But I can see the best in me, can you |
|
I'm a ghetto child |
|
All the ghettos around the world, dig this |
|
One day I'm gonna change the world |
|
Make a better place for every boy and girl |
|
Everyone in need, homeless families |
|
Have a place to sleep and food to eat |
|
I'll take every gun off the streets |
|
So another tear won't be shed in grief |
|
And every thug in every hood |
|
I will make 'em change from bad to good |
|
I believe that it can be done |
|
Gotta start somewhere and I'm that one |
|
All the children sing (Yeah, yeah) |
|
All the children sing (Yeah, yeah) |
|
Just because I'm a ghetto child |
|
I won't live down to your expectations |
|
Just believe that a ghetto child |
|
Can rise in the highest celebration |
|
Know that I am a ghetto child |
|
But I can see the best in me, can you |
|
I'm a ghetto child (Ooh, yeah, ooh) |
|
{Hey, yo', look at me inna different light} |
|
{Spare me all about those stereotypes} |
|
Ain't no madness that'll bring me down |
|
Gonna take this life and turn it around |
|
{Now see, the sky's the limit, I won't be denied} |
|
{Ain't no stoppin' me, I'm a ghetto child} |
|
And at the end when it's said and done |
|
We will all be singin' this ghetto song |
|
I believe that it can be done (Yeah, oh) |
|
Gotta start somewhere and I'm that one |
|
All the children sing (Yeah, yeah) |
|
All the children sing (Yeah, yeah) |
|
Just because I'm a ghetto child |
|
I won't live down to your expectations |
|
Just believe that a ghetto child |
|
Can rise in the highest celebration (Oh...oh...oh...) |
|
Know that I am a ghetto child |
|
But I can see the best in me, can you |
|
I'm a ghetto child (Let's go to church now) |
|
Just because I'm a ghetto child (Uh) |
|
I won't live down to your expectations (Take me to |
|
church now) |
|
Just believe that a ghetto child (Ooh) |
|
Can rise in the highest celebration (Hey, hey) |
|
Know that I am a ghetto child (Ooh, yeah) |
|
But I can see the best in me, can you |
|
I'm a ghetto child (Hey, ghetto child, |
|
whoa...oh...ooh...) |
|
Just because I'm a ghetto child |
|
I won't live down to your expectations (Sing a song |
|
for me) |
|
Just believe that a ghetto child (Sing a song for me) |
|
Can rise in the highest celebration (Everybody sing it |
|
now, yeah) |
|
Know that I am a ghetto child |
|
But I can see (Ooh, yeah) the best in me, can you (Oh) |
|
I'm a ghetto child (So I can see the best in me, can |
|
you) |
|
It's not where you're from, it's where you're gonna be |
|
(Hey) |
|
It's not where you're from, it's where you're gonna beJoe Lyrics Index |
