Lyrics
0:07Here are places in Havannah
0:10That remind me of Savannah
0:13Parts of West Virgina
0:15That might as well be Kenya
0:18Parts of New York City
0:21Parts of Mississippi
0:24Parts of Tennessee
0:25Look like another world to me
0:28Oh oh oh Ghetto-o-o-o
0:31Might as well be another country
0:35Barrio-o-o-o
0:37Might as well be another country
0:40When you look around
0:43You live in another country
0:46To be hungry in L A
0:54Is just like starving in Bombay
0:55Homeless in Moracco
0:59Is a shelter in Chicago
1:02Right around the corner
1:05Just down the road
1:08Right before your eyes
1:11Right under your nose
1:13Hey the ghetto-o-o-o
1:16Might as well be another country
1:19Barrio-o-o-o
1:21Might as well be another country
1:25When you look around
1:27You live in another country too (too)
1:36Now the dictionary says
1:49That the ghetto is a place
1:52Of minority and poverty and over population
1:58We live on this earth together
2:01Ain't no separation
2:03When you're looking down
2:05From outer space
2:06We're just a human race and the world is a
2:09Ghetto-o-o-o
2:11Listen every place and every country
2:14Barrio-o-o-o
2:17It's in every place and every country
2:200When you look around
2:23Do you see your brother when you
2:26Look around
2:29It's a small world after all
2:31Look around
2:34You live in another country too
