Things Goin' On Lyrics

Cover art for Things Goin' On lyrics by Lynyrd Skynyrd

the title doesn't have the word "ghetto" in it. the song is about how the white man has f-ed things up and really doesn't care. neither the citizens nor the politicians. "just sit up there and just get high" is talking about presidents and congressmen who have a coutry club attitude, who don't give a whit for the common people.

"things going on that you don't know" is obviously a reference to secret government shenanigans.
