With a kiwiana old Maori folk song tagged on the end.

lyrics

IN THE GHETTO

I was hoping that we could come together
I was hoping that we could share the night
Cause there’s weepin’, and there’s whalin’

IN THE GHETTO (In the Ghetto where you stay)
IN THE GHETTO, IN THE GHETTO
(In the Ghetto where you stay)
IN THE GHETTO
I MUST MAKE MY WAY BACK HOME
MAKE MY WAY BACK HOME
OO YEAH, MAKE MY WAY BACK HOME

Last night I heard you, heard you cry my name
Last night I heard you, say you wanna die
Cause there’s lootin’, and there’s shootin’

CHORUS

People who know no no comfort, no hope
They wait in boats and drag each other down
Cause there’s lootin’, and there’s shootin’

IN THE GHETTO (In the Ghetto where you stay)
IN THE GHETTO, IN THE GHETTO
(In the Ghetto where you stay)
IN THE GHETTO
I MUST MAKE MY WAY BACK HOME

Pokarekare Ana
Nga Wai o Rotorua
Whiti atu koe hine
Marino Ana e

E hine e
Hoki mai ra
Ka mate ahau
E te aroha e
