Living For The City - Stevie Wonder[00:00:00]

A boy is born in hard time mississippi[00:00:11]

一个男孩在艰难的岁月里出生在mississippi[00:00:16]

Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty[00:00:16]

被四面丑陋的墙围着[00:00:21]

His parents give him love and affection[00:00:21]

他的父母给他爱和关心[00:00:25]

To keep him strong moving in the right direction[00:00:25]

在这城市生存下去就已足够[00:00:41]

His father works some days for fourteen hours[00:00:41]

And you can bet he barely makes a dollar[00:00:45]

His mother goes to scrub the floors for many[00:00:50]

To walk to school she's got to get up early[00:01:36]
