[00:00:00] Living for the City - InstaHit Crew

[00:00:04] A boy is born in hard time Mississippi

[00:00:13] Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty

[00:00:20] His parents give him love and affection

[00:00:24] To keep him strong moving in the right direction

[00:00:28] Living just enough just enough for the city ee ha

[00:00:38] His father works some days for fourteen hours

[00:00:43] And you can bet he barely makes a dollar

[00:00:47] His mother goes to scrub the floor for many

[00:00:51] And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny

[00:00:55] Living just enough just enough for the city yeah

[00:01:21] His sister's black but she is sho 'nuff pretty

[00:01:25] Her skirt is short but Lord her legs are sturdy

[00:01:29] To walk to school she's got to get up early

[00:01:34] Her clothes are old but never are they dirty

[00:01:38] Living just enough just enough for the city um hum

[00:01:46] Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many

[00:01:52] His patience's long but soon he won't have any

[00:01:56] To find a job is like a haystack needle

[00:02:01] Cause where he lives they don't use colored people

[00:02:05] Living just enough just enough for the city

[00:02:39] Living just enough

[00:02:42] For the city ooh ooh
