Walkin' down the street, smoggy eyed Looking at the sky, starry eyed Searchin' for the place, weary eyed Crying in the night, teary eyed Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Wonder when I'll find paradise Somewhere there's a home sweet and nice Wonder if I'll find happiness Never give it up now I guess Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto Don't you know that it's true That for me and for you The world is a ghetto The world is a ghetto The world is a ghetto The world is a ghetto The world is a ghetto
