We Gotta Get out of This Place

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse 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

We gotta get out of this place
If its the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
'Cause girl, there's a better life
For me and you
For me and you
Watch my daddy in bed and tired
Watch my daddy in bed and tired
Watch his hair been turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
He's been working so hard
Iv'e been working so hard
I've been working so hard
Wanna get away
Wanna get away, get away

We gotta get out of this place
If its the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Girl, there's a better life
For me and you
For me and you

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse to shine
You'll be dead before your time is due

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