She′s a ghetto woman
Waitin' for her man to come home
Oh poor ghetto woman
Waitin′ for her man to come home
She's just a ghetto woman
Waiting' for her man to come home
To come home

A rat run ′cross the floor
A roach turn up the wall
Everything is noisy around her
That don′t seem to bother her at all

'Cause she′s a ghetto woman
Sittin' there all alone
She′s just a ghetto woman
Waitin' for her man to come home
To come home

Yes, the TV′s on
Radio blastin' the news
Somebody down the hall
Playin' the low down dirty blues

My ghetto woman
She′s all alone
She′s just a ghetto woman
Waitin' for her man to come home
To come home

′Cause she's a ghetto woman
Said she′s a ghetto woman
Oh, ghetto woman
What's on your mind?
Sometimes I look in your face
Can′t help, but cry
