Living for the City lyrics
A boy is born in hard time Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
Just to keep him strong, moving in the right direction
Living just enough, just enough for the city
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
You'd bet believe she hardly gets a penny
Living just enough, just enough for the city
His hair is long, his feet are hard and gritty
He spends his life walking the streets of New York City
He's almost dead from breathing in air pollution
He tried to vote but to him there's no solution
Living just enough, just enough for the city
I hope you hear inside my words of sorrow
And that motivates you to make a better tomorrow
This place is cool, nowhere could be much colder
If we don't change, the world will soon be over
Living just enough, just enough for the city, yeah
Living just enough, just enough for the city
Living just enough, stop giving, just enough for the city, yeah
Living just enough for the city, oh
Living just enough for the city, oh
Living just enough for the city, oh
