Woke up in the ghetto
Meaning 1: Waking up with your head at the foot of the bed. The upper part of the bed is generally where you lay. It is considered more luxurious because of pillows, stuffed animals, etc, therefore being "wealthy".

Can also be referred to as "Christopher Columbusing", as you are in a place you haven't been in before.
