They say I'm a dope dealer  they say I'm a money snatcher
 They call me a ghetto thug  I'm livin the ghetto life
 I'm stuck with my ghetto kids  so I married a ghetto wife
 I got no education  I'm workin the ghetto job
 I live on the ghetto streets  so I run with the ghetto mob
 They give me a ghetto check  three dollars that's no respect
 Not enough to survive  so I break me a ghetto neck
 I pop me a ghetto shot, down on the ghetto block
 Front page of the newspaper, fiend dies over ghetto rock
 I'm tired of the ghetto noise, ghetto girls ghetto boys
 Hand me a shotgun, cause them are my ghetto toys
 This ghetto mentality, I live in a ghetto town
 Bang to the boogie boom, lets fight to our ghetto sound
 They taught me the tricks and trades, I'm stuck in my ghetto ways
 That's why hypocrites are all sayin these are the ghetto days
 I ?? to a ghetto rock, I'm stopped by a ghetto cop
 A young girl get pregnant, cause she was brought ghetto hot
 I roll with the ghetto game, I'm kickin the ghetto slang
 They gave me a ghetto name, cause its a ghetto thang
 Chorus: (Repeat 4X)
 And the ghetto is no joke
 They got me thinkin, how can a brother get away
 They say I'm a ghetto crook, I'm kickin the ghetto game
 Ghetto babies die, damn that's a ghetto shame
 Back to the ghetto days, and backed to the ghetto nights
 Back to the ghetto lives, and back to the ghetto fights
 Back to the ghetto ladies, and back to the ghetto men
 Back to the ghetto churches , and back to the ghetto sins
 Yes that's a ghetto thing, hit with a ghetto swing
 If you don't know why I say it, than ask Mr. Rodney King
 Cause down in Los Angeles, the ghetto is scandalous
 than Uncle Toms, even they can't handle this
 I go to a ghetto school, i'm keepin it ghetto cool
 I pack me a ghetto tool, gonna kill me a ghetto fool
 I walk on a ghetto floor, I shop at a ghetto store
 How can I pay more, I can't afford it, I'm ghetto poor
 I snort me some ghetto caine, it messed up my ghetto veins
 But I don't even know why, (Why?) Cause its a ghetto thang
 Chorus
 I walk in the ghetto rain, my ghetto ??? gone insane
 I need the ghetto bang, so I cop me some Nightrain
 I'm down with my ghetto crime, I'm doin my ghetto time
 It got me goin crazy, I'm out of my ghetto mind
 I heard me a ghetto blast, straight to his ghetto head
 Look in the newspaper, Backstabber is ghetto dead
 This is the ghetto scene, but still I don't understand
 That's the way it is, when you dealin with a ghetto man
 Chorus
