Simply Red are an English pop band, formed in the mid 1980s. Simply Red's roots originate from the notorious 1976 Sex Pistolsgig at the Lesser Free Trade Hall in Manchester. Manchester art student Mick Hucknall was one of the many young music fans present (along with original members of The Falland lesser luminaries such as Joy Division, The Smithsand Buzzcocks) who was inspired to form a band after witnessing that gig. The first incarnation of the band was a punkgroup called The Frantic Elevators. This band existed for 7 years, with limited releases on local labels, but split in 1984 with only limited local attention and critical acclaim for their final single, "Holding Back the Years".

Ghetto Girl Lyrics
Simply Red
Stay at home now
That little girl was born on the ghetto side of town
She knows every trick in the book and she certainly gets around
Shes been with many men since she was only ten
She never stay at home she s always on the town
Your mamma is wondering where you are
What do you see at night when youre under the stars
Stay at home
Sister stay at home
Dont let your mamma down
Dont be a run around
Stay at home
Sister stay at home
Dont let your mother down
Dont be a run around
Stay at home now
That little girl was born on the ghetto side of town
She knows every trick in the book and she certainly gets around
Shes been with many men since she was only ten
She never stay at home shes always on the town
Your mamma is wondering where you are
What do you see at night when youre under the stars
Baby keep on running and you wont get far
You like to travel with all those movie stars
You like a hangin in the big long shiny cars
Sister stay at home
Dont let your mamma down no no no no
