Living For The City - Edit Version

[Verse 1]A boy is born in hard time MississippiSurrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
To keep him strong moving in the right directionLiving just enough, just enough for the city
[Verse 2]
His father works some days for fourteen hours
And you can bet he barely makes a dollar
His mother goes to scrub the floor for many
And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny
Living just enough, just enough for the city, yeah
[Verse 3]
His sister's black but she is sho 'nuff pretty
Her skirt is short but Lord her legs are sturdyTo 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
[Verse 4]
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
Because where he lives they don't use colored people
Living just enough, just enough for the city
Living just enough
For the city
[Spoken]
Bus for new york city!
Hey bus driver, I'm getting on that horse

Wow, new york, just like I pictured it

Hey you look, you look hip man
Hey you wanna make yourself five bucks man
You look hipRun this across the street for me right quick
Okay, run this across the street for me
[Verse 6]What? Huh? I didn
