歌词

[00:11.420] A boy is born in hard time Mississippi
[00:15.950] Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
[00:20.820] His parents give him love and affection
[00:25.890] To keep him strong moving in the right direction
[00:29.770] Living just enough, just enough for the city...ee ha!
[00:40.530] His father works some days for fourteen hours
[00:45.120] And you can bet he barely makes a dollar
[00:50.040] His mother goes to scrub the floor for many
[00:55.020] And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny
[00:58.890] Living just enough, just enough for the city...yeah
[01:28.070] His sister's black but she is sho 'nuff pretty
[01:31.620] Her skirt is short but Lord her legs are sturdy
[01:36.490] To walk to school she's got to get up early
[01:41.260] Her clothes are old but never are they dirty
[01:45.110] Living just enough, just enough for the city...um hum
[02:01.460] Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many
[02:02.680] His patience's long but soon he won't have any
[02:05.660] To find a job is like a haystack needle
[02:10.590] Cause where he lives they don't use colored people
[02:24.540] Living just enough, just enough for the city...
[02:38.260] Living just enough...
[02:38.880] For the city...ooh,ooh
[05:20.930] His hair is long, his feet are hard and gritty
[05:22.810] He spends his love walking the streets of New York City
[05:26.930] He's almost dead from breathing on air pollution
[05:31.530] He tried to vote but to him there's no solution
[05:35.910] Living just enough, just enough for the city...yeah, yeah, yeah!
[05:46.200] I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow
[05:50.330] And that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow
[05:55.480] This place is cruel no where could be much colder
[05:59.710] If we don't change the world will soon be over
[06:04.000] Living just enough, just enough for the city!!!!
[06:18.350] La, la, la, la, la, la,
[06:24.450] Da Ba Da Da Da Da Da Da
[06:26.280] Da Da Da Da Da Da
[06:27.240] Da Ba Da Da Da Da Da Da Da
[06:29.920]
