Текст песни Little Ghetto Boy (Donny Hathaway) с переводом

Little ghetto boy

Playing in the ghetto street

What’cha gonna do when you grow up

And have to face responsibility?

Will you spend your days and nights in the pool room?

Will you sell caps of madness to the neighborhood?

Little ghetto boy

You already know how rough life can be

'Cause you’ve seen so much pain and misery

Little ghetto boy

Your daddy was blown away

He robbed that grocery store

Don’t you know that was a sad, sad old day?

All of your young life

You’ve seen such a misery and pain

The world is a cruel place

And it ain’t gonna change

You’re so young, you’ve got so far to go

But I don’t think you’ll reach your goal

Young man, hanging 'round the pool room door

Look out, y’all…

Little ghetto boy

When, when, when you become a man

You can make things change, hey hey

If you just take a stand

You gotta believe in yourself and in all you do

You’ve gotta fight to make it better

You’ll see how other people will start believing too

My son, things will start to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better…
