Dennis Brown
Concrete Castle King
[Chorus]
Concrete castle king
Won't you give us a helping hand?
Concrete castle king
I hope you will understand we're suffering

[Verse 1]
Living in your concrete castle on the hill
You don't know what life is like in the ghetto
Living in a two-by-four with no place to walk around, no, no
While you're in a castle all alone

[Chorus]
I said concrete castle king
Won't you give us a helping hand?
Concrete castle king
I hope you will understand we're suffering, yeah

[Verse 2]
Life isn't easy in thе ghetto, no
It's hard to keep from getting into trouble
Thе temptation is great
And you don't have no one to say don't do it, no, no, no

[Bridge]
Concrete castle king, we do need your help
Whoa, yeah
[Verse 3]
Many days we stand in the rain and sun
Waiting for the bus that never comes
You pass by in your fancy car
Wearing a plastic smile and smoking a big cigar

[Chorus]
So concrete castle king
Won't you give us a helping hand?
Concrete castle king
I hope you will understand we're suffering, yeah

[Outro]
We're suffering
We do need your help, yeah
Concrete castle king
