We Gotta Get out of This Place Songtext

von Gilla

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refused to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in tryin'
Now, my boy, you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due
Watch your daddy, he's weak and tired
Watch his hair, it's been turnin' grey
He's been workin' and slavin' his life away
(Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard
(Yeah!) You've been workin' too, baby
(Yeah!) Every night and day
(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
Boy, there's a better life for me and you
We, we, we, we gotta get out of this place
Get out of this place
We, we, we, we gotta get out of this place
Get out of this place
Now, my boy, you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due
Watch your daddy, he's weak and tired
Watch his hair, it's been turnin' grey
He's been workin' and slavin' his life away
(Yeah!) You've been workin' so hard
(Yeah!) Oh, baby
(Yeah!) Every night and day
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Boy, there's a better life for me and you
We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Boy, there's a better life for me and you
We, we, we, we gotta get out of this place
Get out of this place
We, we, we, we gotta get out of this place
Get out of this place
We, we, we, we gotta get out of this place
Get out of this place
We, we, we, we gotta get out of this place
Get out of this place
