We Gotta Get Out Of This Place

(album: Dreaming - 2020)

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refused to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in trying
They say you're so young and you're pretty
And one thing I know is true
You're gonna die before your time is due

Seen my daddy in bed he's dying
Watched his hair been turning grey
I know he's been working and slaving his life away

He's been working so hard

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
There's a better life for me and you

They say you're so young and you're pretty
And one thing I know is true
You're gonna die before your time is due

Seen my daddy in bed he's dying
Watched his hair been turning grey
I know he's been working and slaving his life away

He's been working so hard
He's been working so hard

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
There's a better life for me and you

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
There's a better life for me and you

There's a better life for me and you
