Song Lyrics

His patience s long but soon he won t have any, her clothes are old but never are they dirty, living just enough
and you d best believe she hardly gets a penny
Just enough for the city, living just enough, living just enough
And you can bet he barely makes a dollar, her brother s smart he s got more sense than many, living just enough
Surrounded by four walls that ain t so pretty, and you d best believe she hardly gets a penny For, his mother goes to scrub the floor for many
and you can bet he barely makes a dollar
Her clothes are old but never are they dirty, his father works some days for fourteen hours Stevie, to walk to school she s got to get up early
Her brother s smart he s got more sense than many, living just enough, his father works some days for fourteen hours

cause where he lives they don t use colored people
living just enough
Living just enough, a boy is born in hard time mississippi
Living just enough, living just enough For, and you d best believe she hardly gets a penny
And you d best believe she hardly gets a penny, to find a job is like a haystack needle City, her brother s smart he s got more sense than many
Her skirt is short but lord her legs are sturdy, and you d best believe she hardly gets a penny
His mother goes to scrub the floor for many, living just enough
living just enough

His father works some days for fourteen hours, living just enough, to find a job is like a haystack needle
cause where he lives they don t use colored people
Just enough for the city, to walk to school she s got to get up early, a boy is born in hard time mississippi
A boy is born in hard time mississippi, surrounded by four walls that ain t so pretty, her skirt is short but lord her legs are sturdy
Living just enough, to keep him strong moving in the right direction
To walk to school she s got to get up early, cause where he lives they don t use colored people, her clothes are old but never are they dirty
His parents give him love and affection, to keep him strong moving in the right direction
living just enough

his mother goes to scrub the floor for many
To walk to school she s got to get up early, living just enough The, her clothes are old but never are they dirty
surrounded by four walls that ain t so pretty
his patience s long but soon he won t have any
her brother s smart he s got more sense than many
Her brother s smart he s got more sense than many, living just enough, to keep him strong moving in the right direction
His patience s long but soon he won t have any, his parents give him love and affection
Living just enough, his parents give him love and affection, and you can bet he barely makes a dollar

living just enough
Living just enough, and you d best believe she hardly gets a penny
Cause where he lives they don t use colored people, living just enough
his sister s black but she is sho nuff pretty
Cause where he lives they don t use colored people, living just enough, to keep him strong moving in the right direction
to keep him strong moving in the right direction
his mother goes to scrub the floor for many
Living just enough, her brother s smart he s got more sense than many

Her brother s smart he s got more sense than many, to keep him strong moving in the right direction
His sister s black but she is sho nuff pretty, to keep him strong moving in the right direction The, her clothes are old but never are they dirty
his father works some days for fourteen hours
his parents give him love and affection
living just enough
living just enough
And you d best believe she hardly gets a penny, his sister s black but she is sho nuff pretty, a boy is born in hard time mississippi
His mother goes to scrub the floor for many, his father works some days for fourteen hours Living, his patience s long but soon he won t have any

her skirt is short but lord her legs are sturdy
a boy is born in hard time mississippi
His patience s long but soon he won t have any, his mother goes to scrub the floor for many
