Love Like An Immigrant - Carrie Newcomer[00:00:00]
Grandpa came over on the boat[00:00:12]
His voice was thick with the old world and smoke[00:00:18]
And ran in Chicago 'til he met my grandma[00:00:23]
The he moved to South Bend with his new 14 year old bride[00:00:29]
So mamma and Louie and the rest of the family[00:00:40]
Lived in a duplex next to my great grandma Baldoni[00:00:46]
And believed in the hopes that can grow in a country[00:00:51]
Even after my grandma and grandpa went their separate ways[00:00:57]
He said "Love who you are love what it's meant[00:01:08]
Live out your love like a new immigrant"[00:01:14]
My dad drove a mile truck before he was 14[00:01:29]
Came back from Korea in 1953[00:01:34]
Met up with my mother introduced by his sister[00:01:40]
They put a dime in the juke box took a turn on the dance floor[00:01:45]
He said "Love who you are love what it's meant[00:02:02]
Live out your love like a new immigrant"[00:02:08]
So I came along after one and before another[00:02:17]
Grew up on the Beatles and Jack Kennedy's murder[00:02:22]
I went looking for something in more than one country[00:02:28]
Fell in love once or twice broke my heart but I'd try it again[00:02:33]
So this is the new world not the old world[00:02:45]
Let me lie close beside you and whisper have you heard[00:02:51]
The sound of the singing from some bright new country[00:02:56]
And catch it's been calling us home to it lately[00:03:02]
So "love who you are love what it's meant [00:03:13]
Live out your love like a new immigrant[00:03:19]
"love who you are love what it's meant [00:03:25]
Live out your love like a new immigrant[00:03:31]
