God holds your hand then, and she is so strong
She's got a hand brake that lasts so long
And God how she loves you when you feel blue
Crushed, you're so crushed, you don't know what to do

This world is a ghetto where money is the dream
And you've pawned your last coat, with nothing to redeem

She broke your heart then, with one broken stare
Left you the wreckage on which to stare
You better realize something, they push you when they can
God he don't say nothing, he just carries the can

This world's a ghetto where money is the dream
And you've pawned your last coat with nothing to redeem
