Bonnie Tyler - Living For The City Lyrics
(stevie wonder)Producers for bonnie: david mackay, ronnie scott, steve wolfeA boy is born in hardtime mississippiSurrounded by four walls that aint so prettyHis parents give him love and affectionTo keep him strong, movin in the right directionLiving just enough, just enough for the city, yeahHis father works some days for fourteen hoursAnd you can bet he barely makes a dollarHis mother goes to scrub the floors for manyAnd youd best believe she hardly gets a pennyLiving just enough, just enough for the cityHis sisters black, but she is sho nuff prettyHer skirt is short, but lord her legs are sturdyTo walk to school, shes got to get up earlyHer clothes are old, but never are they dirtyLiving just enough, just enough for the cityHer brothers smart, hes got more sense than manyHis patiences long, but soon he wont have anyTo find a job is like a haystack needle, causeWhere he lives, they dont use coloured peopleLiving just enough, just enough for the cityLiving just enough for the city
