You've come a long way baby, From wealth and food stamp lines, You're moving on up, And leaving poverty behind. You've had a good education, And seen the best of the schools, But when you take a drink, The ghetto comes out of you.
E I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto) A I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto) C#m7 I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto)

You're a foxy lady, Your mamma had a beautiful child, You're built like a brick house, And that's no lie.
When we go to the disco, You drive the fellas wild, When you shake your booty, Ghetto style.
E I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto) A I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto) C#m7 I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto)

You're a hunk of raw sugar, Got some real sweet hips, Your love, your love, your love, Is like a honey drip. Your roots are in the mean streets, Ghetto mamma, Stay the same.
E I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto) A I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto) C#m7 I took you out of the ghetto, (I took you out of the ghetto)
