ghetto of my mind

saving all my money all week long

so i can go out driving with you

down on hollywood boulevard

on friday night

dressed right

i don't take no trouble smoke at the wall

but i still have that leopard-skin hat

that you gave me way back

before it was cool

and they took it to school

here in the ghetto

the ghetto of my mind

y aqui

the ghetto

the ghetto of my mind

hey we wild it up

wild it up

i like to dance with my rooner

'cause when we dance i feel like

we are who we've meant to be

he puts his arms around me

i put my arms around him

and i feel satisfied and free

one night i tried my bandanna around his wrists

and we started to sway and it felt so good

and he said looky here mamma
