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 why 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, looky here I think I better just see you Safely out of the neighborhood" That is to say The ghetto The ghetto of my mind why aqui, the ghetto The ghetto of my mind Hey we wild it up, wild it up Outside my window the noise is all I've got There are no stars in the sky Just the sirens and queens Breaking glass down in the parking lot That's the world where I live Sometimes I wonder, oh how can I go on? But I know that the world you make inside your head That's the one you see around, that's what I said And the one you see Is the one you make Inside of the ghetto The ghetto of your mind why aqui, the ghetto The ghetto of my mind Hey we wild it up, wild it up
