A 

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 girl you're so young and pretty 
And one thing I know is true
you're gonna die before your time is due

watch my daddy in bed and tired
watch his hair been turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
oh yes I know
He's been working so hard
I've been working too
Every night and day
Yeah Yeah Yeah
D              G          A
We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

'Cause girl, there's a better life 
For me and you .. D C   G A     D C   G A 
Now my girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true, yeah
You'll be dead before your time is due
you know it
watch my daddy in bed and tired
watch his hair been turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
I know...He's been working so hard
I've been working too...woah...Yeah Yeah 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... oh baby

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
oh you know it, baby
and I know it, too, baby
oh yeah
