| 歌曲 | Livin' for the City |
| 歌手 | Jonny Lang |
| 专辑 | Long Time Coming [14 Tracks] |
| A boy is born in hard time Mississippi | |
| Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty | |
| His parents give him love and affection | |
| To keep him strong moving in the right direction | |
| Living just enough, just enough for the city...ee ha! | |
| His father works some days for fourteen hours | |
| And you can bet he barely makes a dollar | |
| His mother goes to scrub the floors for many | |
| And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny | |
| Living just enough, just enough for the city... yeah! | |
| His sister's black but she is sho'nuff pretty | |
| Her skirt is short but Lord her legs are sturdy | |
| To walk to school she's got to get up early | |
| Her clothes are old but never are they dirty | |
| Living just enough, just enough for the city...um hum | |
| Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many | |
| His patience's long but soon he won't have any | |
| To find a job is like a haystack needle | |
| Cause where he lives they don't use black people | |
| Living just enough, just enough for the city... | |
| Living just enough... | |
| For the city... ooh, ooh | |
| Living just enough... | |
| For the city... ooh, ooh | |
| Living just enough... | |
| For the city... ooh, ooh | |
| Living just enough... | |
| For the city... ooh, ooh | |
| Living just enough... | |
| For the city... ooh, ooh | |
| Living just enough... | |
| For the city... ooh, ooh | |
