[00:00:00] Living For The City - Erin Willett

[00:00:01] Written by：Stevie Wond

[00:00:01] A boy is born in hard time Mississippi

[00:00:08] Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty

[00:00:17] His parents give him love and affection

[00:00:22] To keep him strong moving in the right direction

[00:00:25] Living just enough just enough for the city e ha

[00:00:36] His father works some days for fourteen hours

[00:00:41] And you can bet he barely makes a dollar

[00:00:46] His mother goes to scrub the floor for many

[00:00:50] And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny

[00:00:54] Living just enough just enough for the city yeah

[00:01:22] His sister's black but she is sho 'nuff pretty

[00:01:27] Her skirt is short but lord her legs are sturdy

[00:01:32] To walk to school she's got to get up early

[00:01:36] Her clothes are old but never are they dirty

[00:01:40] Living just enough just enough for the city um hum

[00:01:51] Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many

[00:01:56] His patience's long but soon he won't have any

[00:02:01] To find a job is like a haystack needle

[00:02:05] Cause where he lives they don't use colored people

[00:02:09] Living just enough just enough for the city

[00:02:51] Living just enough

[00:02:54] For the city ooh ooh

[00:02:56] Living just enough

[00:02:58] For the city ooh ooh
