[G] [A]
[D] That young boy without a name Anywhere I'd know his face
In this city The kid's my favorite
[G] I've seen and seen [A] him I see him every day
I've seen him run outside Looking for a place to hide
From his father The kid half naked
[G] And said to [A] myself What's the matter here?
[D] I'm tired [A] of the excuses [Bm] Everybody uses
[D] He's their kid [A] I stay out of it
[G] But who [A] gave you [F#m] the right To [G] do [A] this?
We live on Morgan Street Just ten feet [D] between
And his mother [E] I never see her
[G] But her screams and [A] cussing I hear them every day
But it's like if you [D] don't mind I won't beat on your behind
Slap you Slap you silly
[G] Make me sing [A] Oh, what's the matter here?
[Gm] I'm tired [A] of the excuses [Bm] Everybody uses
[G] He's your kid [A] Just do as [D] you see fit
[A] [D] But get [A] this through [Bm] that I don't approve [D] of what you did
[A] To your own [D] flesh and [A] blood

I know what you do [G] And what you did
[A] To your own [D] flesh and blood Well, if you don't sit
In your chair straight I'll take this belt
From around [G] my waist [D] And [G] don't you think
That I won't use it?
Answer [A] me and take your [Bm] time
What could be the awful [G] crime He could [A] do at so [D] young an age?
[G] If I'm the only [A] witness To your [Bm] madness
Offer me some words to balance out [A] What I see and [D] what I hear
All [G] these [A] cold and [Bm] rude Things that you do
[G] I suppose you [A] do Because he [D] belongs to you
Blend [G] in the spit of [A] love And a feel of [Bm] warmth
You've given him these cuts and [G] sores That won't [A] heal
With time [D] or with days And I want
To say I [G] want to say
[A]
What's the [D] matter here?
