[00:00.00] 作曲 : Stevie Wonder
[00:01.00] 作词 : Stevie Wonder
[00:11.270] A boy is born in hard time mississippi
[00:15.980] Surrounded by four walls that ain’t so pretty
[00:20.930] His parents give him love and affection
[00:25.100] To keep him strong moving in the right direction
[00:29.910] Living just enough just enough for the city ee ha
[00:40.420] His father works some days for fourteen hours
[00:45.230] And you can bet he barely makes a dollar
[00:50.100] His mother goes to scrub the floors for many
[00:54.540] And you’d best believe she hardly gets a penny
[00:58.940] Living just enough just enough for the city yeah
[01:26.540] His sister’s black but she is sho’nuff pretty
[01:31.380] Her skirt is short but lord her legs are sturdy
[01:36.290] To walk to school she’s got to get up early
[01:41.090] Her clothes are old but never are they dirty
[01:45.170] Living just enough just enough for the city um hum
[01:56.090] Her brother’s smart he’s got more sense than many
[02:00.660] His patience’s long but soon he won’t have any
[02:05.610] To find a job is like a haystack needle
[02:10.200] Cause where he lives they don’t use colored people
[02:14.570] Living just enough just enough for the city
[02:51.620] Living just enough For the city
[05:17.370] His hair is long his feet are hard and gritty
[05:22.140] He spends his life walking the streets of new york city
[05:26.880] He’s almost dead from breathing in air pollution
[05:31.680] He tried to vote but to him there’s no solution
[05:35.570] Living just enough just enough for the city
[05:43.330] Yeah yeah yeah
[05:46.280] I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow
[05:50.750] And that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow
[05:55.560] This place is cruel no where could be much colder
[06:00.280] If we don’t change the world will soon be over
[06:04.220] Living just enough stop giving just enough for the city
