Got To Get Outta This Place

My girl you're so young and pretty, And one thing I know is true, You'll be dead before your time is due! See my daddy in bed a-dyin'. See his hair been turnin' grey. He's been workin' and slavin' his life away. 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. In this dirty old part of the city, where the sun refused to shine people tell me there ain't no use in tryin'.
