A boy is born to a mother who already has more children than she can feed in a Chicago ghetto. The boy grows up hungry, learns how to steal and fight, purchases a gun and steals a car, tries to run, but is killed. The song ends with another child being born the same day in the ghetto, implying that the newborn could meet the same fate, continuing the cycle of poverty and violence.

Patrick Smith - In The Ghetto (Take 1)

Hello, My name is Patrick Smith from The Netherlands. And my big dream is to be a singer. My biggest idol is Elvis Presley and it's a honor to sing his music and share it with the world. I don't wanna be like elvis, because for me and i think for a lot of others. There's only one 'Elvis Presley'. My music taste is very wide, from Classic, Jazz, Gospel, Rock to Country. I like singers as Mario Lanza, Nat King Cole, Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash, Jackie Wilson And Buddy Holly. 

Emotions can take you over bridges and world's you've never imagine 'Patrick Smith'.
