Living For The City - Ike Turner/Tina Turner (蒂娜·特纳)[00:00:00]

A boy is born in hard time Mississippi[00:00:10]

Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty[00:00:15]

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

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

Living just enough[00:00:29]

Just enough for the city[00:00:32]

His father works some days for fourteen hours[00:00:39]

And you can believe that he barely makes a dollar[00:00:44]

His mother goes to scrub the floors for many[00:00:49]

And you can best she hardly makes a penny[00:00:53]

Living just enough[00:00:58]

Just enough for the city[00:01:01]

His sister's black but she is sho''nuff pretty[00:01:24]

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 dirty[00:01:39]

Living just enough[00:01:44]

Just enough for the city[00:01:46]

Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many[00:01:53]

His patience's long but soon he won't have any[00:01:59]

To find a job is like a haystack needle[00:02:04]

'Cause where he lives they don't use colored people[00:02:08]

Living just enough[00:02:13]

Just enough for the city[00:02:15]

Ohhhhhh ah[00:02:22]

Ahhhhhh yeah[00:02:28]

Cause living just enough[00:02:38]

Cause they ain't yet enough[00:02:42]

Propable start you ain't get no start[00:02:48]

Give that lode one rode can't get shut[00:02:53]

What is hole they'll hold you every know[00:02:57]

One day somebody gonna come on[00:03:03]

Gonna take their children speel their hole[00:03:07]

Oh yeah holy just you just know[00:03:12]

Some just even know[00:03:18]
