A boy is born in hard time Mississippi
Un niño nace en tiempos difíciles Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
Rodeado de cuatro paredes que no son tan bonitas
His parents give him love and affection
Sus padres le dan amor y cariño
To keep him strong moving in the right direction
Para mantenerlo fuerte moviéndose en la dirección correcta
Living just enough, just enough for the city
Vivir lo suficiente, lo suficiente para la ciudad
His father works some days for fourteen hours
Su padre trabaja algunos días catorce horas
And you can bet he barely makes a dollar
Y puedes apostar que apenas gana un dólar
His mother goes to scrub the floors for many
Su madre va a fregar los pisos durante muchos
And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny
Y será mejor que creas que ella apenas recibe un centavo
Living just enough, just enough for the city yeah
Vivir lo suficiente, lo suficiente para la ciudad, sí
His sister's black but she is sho 'nuff pretty
Su hermana es negra pero es bastante bonita
Her skirt is short but Lord her legs are sturdy
Su falda es corta pero Señor, sus piernas son fuertes
To walk to school she's got to get up early
Para caminar a la escuela tiene que levantarse temprano
Her clothes are old but never are they dirty
Su ropa es vieja pero nunca está sucia
Living just enough, just enough for the city
Vivir lo suficiente, lo suficiente para la ciudad
Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many
Su hermano es inteligente y tiene más sentido común que muchos
His patience's long but soon he won't have any
Su paciencia es larga pero pronto no tendrá ninguna
To find a job is like a haystack needle
Encontrar trabajo es como la aguja de un pajar
'Cause where he lives they don't use colored people
Porque donde vive no usan gente de color
Living just enough, just enough for the city
Vivir lo suficiente, lo suficiente para la ciudad
Living just enough for the city
Vivir lo suficiente para la ciudad
His hair is long, his feet are hard and gritty
Su cabello es largo, sus pies duros y arenosos
He spends his life walking the streets of New York City
Pasa su vida caminando por las calles de la ciudad de Nueva York
He's almost dead from breathing in air pollution
Está casi muerto por respirar la contaminación del aire
He tried to vote but to him there's no solution
Intentó votar pero para él no hay solución
Living just enough, just enough for the city yeah, yeah, yeah!
Vivir lo suficiente, lo suficiente para la ciudad, ¡sí, sí, sí!
I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow
Espero que escuches dentro de mi voz de dolor
And that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow
Y que te motive a hacer un mañana mejor
This place is cruel no where could be much colder
Este lugar es cruel, no hay ningún otro lugar que pueda ser más frío
If we don't change the world will soon be over
Si no cambiamos el mundo pronto se acabará
Living just enough, just enough for the city!
¡Vivir lo suficiente, lo suficiente para la ciudad!
