Lyrics

Little child, runnin' wild Watch a while You see he never smiles Broken home, father gone Mama tired, so he's all alone Kind of sad, kind of mad Ghetto child, thinkin' he's been had But I can just hear him In the back of his mind sayin' Didn't have to be here You didn't have to love for me While I was just a nothin' child Why couldn't y'all just let me be Let me be, let me be, let me be? Little child, runnin' wild Watch a while You see he never smiles Broken home, daddy gone Mama tired and he's all alone Kind of sad, oh baby, kind of mad Ghetto child, thinkin' he's been had And I can just hear him sayin' I didn't have to be here You didn't have to love for me While I was just a nothin' child Why couldn't they just let me be Let me be, let me be, let me be? Ain't got no money I got to play in the alleys, ain't got no pride Just took everything out of me, I got it sad Got to make it alone Got to get away from home There's ain't no fun, my life I just run Run on, run on, run on ghetto child Run on ghetto child Run on ghetto child Run on ghetto child You're runnin' wild Watch a while You see he never smiles Father gone, alright
