Joe F- Shaggy Ghetto Child Lyrics

Ghetto Child Lyrics

{All the ghettos around the world}

 {Dig this}

 {Ghetto Fabulous Joe}

 {Shaggy}

 All the children sing {Uh}

 

 

 Im a ghetto child

 Im a ghetto child (Check it, out)

 

 

 Theres a world out there that I wanna see

 Theres a man that Im destined to be

 I wont be stopped by the ghetto streets

 I believe inside that I cant be beat

 

 

 This life could be a ball and chain

 If you let yourself get caught in the game

 I had some friends who sold drugs for dough

 But I dont intend to go down that road

 

 

 Just because Im a ghetto child

 I wont live down to your expectations (No, no)

 Just believe that a ghetto child

 Can rise in the highest celebration (Oh)

 Know that I am a ghetto child

 But I can see the best in me, can you

 Im a ghetto child

 

 

 All the ghettos around the world, dig this

 

 

 One day Im gonna change the world

 Make a better place for every boy and girl

 Everyone in need, homeless families

 Have a place to sleep and food to eat

 

 

 Ill take every gun off the streets

 So another tear wont be shed in grief

 And every thug in every hood

 I will make em change from bad to good

 

 

 I believe that it can be done

 Gotta start somewhere and Im that one

 All the children sing (Yeah, yeah)

 All the children sing (Yeah, yeah)

 

 

 Just because Im a ghetto child

 I wont live down to your expectations

 Just believe that a ghetto child

 Can rise in the highest celebration

 Know that I am a ghetto child

 But I can see the best in me, can you

 Im a ghetto child (Ooh, yeah, ooh)

 

 

 {Hey, yo, look at me inna different light}

 {Spare me all about those stereotypes}

 Aint no madness thatll bring me down

 Gonna take this life and turn it around

 

 

 {Now see, the skys the limit, I wont be denied}

 {Aint no stoppin me, Im a ghetto child}

 And at the end when its said and done

 We will all be singin this ghetto song

 

 

 I believe that it can be done (Yeah, oh)

 Gotta start somewhere and Im that one

 All the children sing (Yeah, yeah)

 All the children sing (Yeah, yeah)

 

 

 Just because Im a ghetto child

 I wont live down to your expectations

 Just believe that a ghetto child

 Can rise in the highest celebration (Oh...oh...oh...)

 Know that I am a ghetto child

 But I can see the best in me, can you

 Im a ghetto child (Lets go to church now)

 

 

 Just because Im a ghetto child (Uh)

 I wont live down to your expectations (Take me to

 church now)

 Just believe that a ghetto child (Ooh)

 Can rise in the highest celebration (Hey, hey)

 Know that I am a ghetto child (Ooh, yeah)

 But I can see the best in me, can you

 Im a ghetto child (Hey, ghetto child,

 whoa...oh...ooh...)

 

 

 Just because Im a ghetto child

 I wont live down to your expectations (Sing a song

 for me)

 Just believe that a ghetto child (Sing a song for me)

 Can rise in the highest celebration (Everybody sing it

 now, yeah)

 Know that I am a ghetto child

 But I can see (Ooh, yeah) the best in me, can you (Oh)

 Im a ghetto child (So I can see the best in me, can

 you)
