Guns in the Ghetto

Daddy don't go out tonight Just stay home 'til morning light Me and mama don't feel right Please hold us tight Daddy, why did you go to work? When you know just how much we love you so Please come back tomorrow They're giving out guns in the ghetto They're saying they'll set you free One day I'll have children of my own But I'm afraid they won't have me Mama, is daddy home? Why are you crying all alone? Grandma's tears have turned to stone And I'm all alone Mama, isn't daddy back? I'm getting scared and that's a fact Why are we all dressed like that All in black? They're giving out guns in the ghetto They're saying they'll set you free One day I'll have children of my own But I'm afraid they won't have me Daddy, don't go out tonight Please stay home 'til morning light Me and mama don't feel right Please hold us tight Daddy, why did you go to work?
