World Is A Ghetto Lyrics

Artist: War

Walkin' down the street, smoggy-eyed
Looking at the sky, starry-eyed
Searchin' for the place, weary-eyed
Crying in the night, teary-eyed

Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

Wonder when I'll find paradise
Somewhere there's a home sweet and nice
Wonder if I'll find happiness
Never give it up now I guess

Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

------ long instrumental break ------

There's no need to search anywhere
Happiness is here, have your share
If you know you're loved, be secure
Paradise is love to be sure

Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

(The world is a ghetto)
{21 times and fade}

by Oscar on 10/4/2008 8:47am This is one of my favourites songs of all time ... remember was the first LP my older brother bought when my dad bought a "new" radiola (radio + vynil discs players) about the early 70s ... great band, music, time !

by kasty667 on 4/6/2009 12:24am Well, i do agree with Oscar. When i was just a little kid in Athens, Greece (around 1974-5), a friend of mine had a tape with the same-titled album. He was also an electronic genious (just 15 years old) and he made an amplifier all by himself, so the guy was the king in our parties! (Unfortunatelly he died 6-7 years ago in the USA). The album contained two long songs, Four Cornered Room and The World is a Ghetto, one after the other, so when we liked a girl we were asking her to dance non-stop for about 20 minutes. Romantic? Yes, just kids, but even now - i'm nearly 50 - this song makes me shiver.
