lirik lagu stevie wonder - living for the city - 1982 musiquarium version
a boy is born in hard time mississippi
surrounded by four walls that ain’t so pretty
his parents give him love and affection
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
and you’d best believe she hardly gets a penny
living just enough, just enough for the city, yeah
da ba da da da da da da
da ba da da da da da
da ba da da da da da da
his sister’s black but she is sho’nuff pretty
her skirt is short but lord her legs are st-rdy
to 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
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
’cause where he lives they don’t use colored people
living just enough, just enough for the city
da ba da da da da da da
da ba da da da da da
da ba da da da da da da
living just enough for the city, ooh, ooh
living just enough for the city, ooh, ooh
living just enough for the city, ooh, ooh
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, yeah, yeah, yeah
i hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow
and that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow
this place is cruel no where could be much colder
if we don’t change the world will soon be over
living just enough, stop giving just enough for the city
la, la, la, la, la, la
da ba da da da da da da
da ba da da da da da
da ba da da da da da da
da ba da da da da da da
da ba da da da da da
da ba da da da da da da
oh no no no no oh no
oh no no no no oh no
