We Gotta Get out of This Place - Live

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in trying
My little girl you're so young and pretty
One thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due

See my daddy in bed, he's dying
He know his hair is turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
We gotta work, work
We gotta work, work, work, work, work

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 better life for me and you

My little girl, you're so young and pretty
One thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due
Yes, you will girl

Hey, see my daddy in bed he's dying
He know his hair is turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away, yeah
We gotta work, work
We gotta work, work, work, work, work

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

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 better life for me and you
