Eek-A-Mouse - Ghetto Living
Geng geng gedda ba-oing
Gen gen gedda ba-oing
Gen gen gedda ba-oing
Gen gen gedda ba-oing
A den a den ye-en, ben!
Down in the ghetto is where I gro-ow
Pain and tribulation all I kno-ow
Mommy and daddy all we a live poo-or
Wha make we a feel suffer so-o, eh
Storm it come, blow down the do-or
Rain a blow through my one windo-ow
Shoes tear up, toe jus a sho-ow
Jah kno-ow, eh, Jah kno-ow, eh!
Mi na kno-ow
Jah no mi no kno-ow, Jah no Jah no mi no kno-ow
Jah know mi no kno-ow, Jah know mi no kno-ow
Jah know mi no kno-ow, Jah know mi no kno-ow, eh!
Fi mi muma tell mi don't rob no store
Else police beat me make me back sore
She tell all daughter "don't turn a whore"
Just take this suff-er-a-tion so-oo, eh!
Five 'pon da bed, four 'roun da flo-or
When we a go de mi no know no-oh-oh-oh
Muma just a ball, pupa jus a ba-all
The greatest crime is to be poor
Ay-ay dedduh mo-oing

Seemed like whole heap of excitement
Lots of people they gather around
Feel like him dead in front of them
And there lie child on da ground
Them want to kno-ow
Who kill-illed, little Ado
The-em want to kno-ow
Who kill-illed, little Ado-o
A no mi no kno-ow
Who kill-illed little Ado-o
A no mi no kno-ow
Who killed little Ado-o, eh!
Down in the ghetto is where I gro-ow
Pain and tribulation is all I kno-ow
