A boy is born
In hard time Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls
That ain't so pretty
His parents give him
Love and affection
To keep him strong
Movin' in the right direction
Livin' just enough
Just enough for the city
His father works some days
For fourteen hours
And you can bet
He barely makes a dollar
His mother goes to scrub
The floors for many
And you'd best believe
She hardly gets a penny
Livin' just enough
Just enough for the city
In hard time Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls
That ain't so pretty
His parents give him
Love and affection
To keep him strong
Movin' in the right direction
Livin' just enough
Just enough for the city
His father works some days
For fourteen hours
And you can bet
He barely makes a dollar
His mother goes to scrub
The floors for many
And you'd best believe
She hardly gets a penny
Livin' just enough
Just enough for the city
