Текст песни Across 110th Street (Drum & Bass Mix) - Bobby Womack

Yes, sir

I was the third brother of five
Doing whatever I had to do to survive
I′m not saying what I did was alright
Trying to break out of the ghetto was a day to day fight

Been down so long, getting up didn't cross my mind
But I knew there was a better way of life that I was just trying to find
You don′t know what you'll do until you're put under pressure
Across 110th Street is a hell of a tester

Ooh baby, across 110th Street
Trying to catch a woman that′s weak
Oh-oh-oh, across 110th Street
Pushers won′t let the junkie go free

Woah-oh-oh, across 110th Street
Woman trying to catch a trick on the street
Ooh baby, across 110th Street
You can find it all in the street, yeah

Look around you, look around you, look around you
Yes, sir

I got one more thing I wanna talk to y'all about right now
Hey brother, there′s a better way out
Shooting that coke, snorting that dope man you're copping out
Take my advice, it′s either live or die
You've got to be strong if you want to survive

The family on the other side of town
Would catch hell without a ghetto around
Take my advice, it′s either live or die
You've got to be strong if you want to survive

Across 110th Street
Trying to catch a woman that's weak
Oh-oh-oh, across 110th Street
Pushers won′t let the junkie go free
Across 110th Street
A woman trying to catch a trick on the street
Oh-oh-oh, across 110th Street
You can find it all in the street, yeah

Yes, sir
