We Gotta Get Out Of This Place

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

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

See my daddy in bed a dying
See his hair been turning gray
He's been slaving and working his life away, yeah

Working so hard
Working so hard
Working so hard
Work work
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
Girl there's a a better life for me and you
