Children of the Ghetto

Children of the ghetto

Runnin' wild and free

In a concrete jungle

Filled with misery

There's no inspiration

To brighten up their day

So out of desperation

I would like to say

Children of the ghetto

Keep your head

To the sky

Children of the ghetto

Always in the news

Toughness is their motto

And bitter are their blues

But deep inside the ghetto

There's a unity, yeah

Oh yeah

Their councils are for sorrows

And no misery, yeah

Children of the ghetto

Keep your head

To the sky

To the sky

God's your inspiration

Mm-hmm

To brighten up your day

Don't you know

So better consolation

I would like to say

Children of the ghetto

Keep your head

To the sky

Sing with me this song now children

(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Keep your head up

(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Keep it up

Keep it up

(Sha-la-la-la)

Sing with me this song now children

(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Keep your head up

(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Keep it up

Keep it up

(Sha-la-la-la)

Don't you know

Everything is gonna be alright

If you just

Keep it up

Keep it up

Keep it up

Everything

(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Surely is gonna be alright

(Sha-la-la-la)

Ah-ah

If you just

(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Keep it up, keep it up

Keep it up, keep it up

(Sha-la-la-la)

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, pa-da-pa

(Sha-la-la-la)

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, pa-da-pa

(Sha-la-la-la)

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, pa-da-pa

(Sha-la-la-la)

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, pa-da-pa

(Sha-la-la-la)

Pa

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la

Everything

Is gonna be alright
