[00:12.34]a boy is born in hard time mississippi
[00:16.99]surrounded by four walls that ain’t so pretty
[00:22.04]his parents give him love and affection
[00:26.79]to keep him strong moving in the right direction
[00:30.93]living just enough, just enough for the city...
[00:40.24]
[00:41.55]his father works some days for fourteen hours
[00:46.49]and you can bet he barely makes a dollar
[00:51.41]his mother goes to scrub the floor for many
[00:56.35]and you’d best believe she hardly gets a penny
[01:00.37]living just enough, just enough for the city...
[01:09.66]
