We Gotta Get Out Of This Place

(Album: Origins, Vol. 2 - 2020)

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in trying

My girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due
Oh yeah

Watch my daddy in bed and dying
Watch his hair been turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
Oh yeah, I know it

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
Believe me girl
You know, you know it's true

Now my girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due
Oh yeah

See my daddy in bed and dying
Watch his hair been turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
Oh 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
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
Believe me, girl
You know, you know it's true

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
I know it's true girl
Come on believe me now

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we'll ever do
