lirik lagu ghetto lament – weldon irvine
[verse 1]
they live in ghetto dwellings, but they seldom complain
they face starvation daily, nightime finds them in pain
their future so uncertain, tell me, who is to blame?
[chorus]
what about the hungry babies?
their innocence becomes a tragedy
is it that our leaders are so cold?
or do they just refuse to see?
[verse 2]

we’re waiting for the day (waiting for the day)
when we can prove that all men are really brothers (all men are really brothers)
pray for the day [?] love each other
finding out the way to be at peace (finding out the way)

that’s what they should at least be wondering
we’ve seen these things occur before
