It is the story of a young Afro-American born in winters in the ghettos of chicago, his mother crying because she has nothing to feed him.
A year later the young man, who has grown into an adult, has thrown off a thousand difficulties, he flies and fights for his survival in this dangerous neighborhood of the ghettos.
One day he gets a gun, steals a car and tries to escape, but he is killed, just when another child is born, his mother is crying because the story of the young child of the ghettos is deadlocked and Is repeated in a loop, for every child who comes into the world in the ghettos will suffer the same fate as all the others before him,
This is the fate reserved for the young African-American ghettos.
Analysis: it is a song that carries a message, it is like a political commitment: that will please one half of the audience but will attract the wrath of the other half of the audience.
Anecdote: If Elvis had to record this title, it could certainly have been immediately taken over by Dolly Parton.
