In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refused to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in trying
My little girl you're so young and pretty
One thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is through
See my daddy in bed, he's dying
You know his hair is turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
We gotta work
Work
We gotta work
Work, work, work, work
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
My little girl you're so young and pretty
One thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is through
Yes, you will, girl
Where the sun refused to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in trying
My little girl you're so young and pretty
One thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is through
See my daddy in bed, he's dying
You know his hair is turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
We gotta work
Work
We gotta work
Work, work, work, work
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
My little girl you're so young and pretty
One thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is through
Yes, you will, girl
