Meet me at the ghetto gates
And I will wait for you
Meet me at the ghetto gates
But not too late
I'll be waiting there for you
Best put on your travelling shoes

Meet me at the ghetto gates
Love or death could be our fates
But I will wait for you
I'll be whistling my little song
But not too long
Don't make me wait too long
'Cause then I'll be a moving on

Meet me at the ghetto gates
And I will wait for you
Meet me at the ghetto gates
But not too late
I'll be waiting there for you
Best put on your travelling shoes

Meet me at the ghetto gates
Love or death could be our fates
But I will wait for you

I'll be whistling my little song
But not too long
Don't make me wait too long
'Cause then I'll be a moving on
