The Immigrants - Gaby Moreno/Van Dyke Parks[00:00:00]
Lyrics by:David Rudder[00:00:06]
So much trouble in the home[00:00:13]
Of the brave and the land of the free[00:00:15]
Am I an immigrant or am[00:00:24]
I a new slave made for all brutality[00:00:26]
I don't think so[00:00:31]
Is it that man has lost his reason[00:00:35]
You can't even blame the heat[00:00:40]
They're moving like jackals[00:00:45]
In the hunting season[00:00:46]
In the hunting season[00:00:48]
And the refugee's soul is the meat[00:00:51]
Oh yeah yeah[00:00:54]
The immigrants are here to stay[00:00:56]
To help build America[00:00:59]
The immigrants ain't going nowhere they're here for America[00:01:06]
Fighting for a better life[00:01:17]
Fighting through the grunge[00:01:21]
Grunge[00:01:23]
America remember Ellis Island[00:01:26]
We all came here to take the plunge[00:01:31]
Plunge[00:01:34]
I hope you understand it[00:01:35]
Please take it take it and I[00:01:37]
Take me away now with your sweet soul calypso[00:02:00]
A cumbia and a reggae[00:02:04]
Like a punta rock and a salsa samba[00:02:10]
A high life bhangra merengue[00:02:14]
I think remebe tu[00:02:17]
In other words[00:02:18]
Yeah[00:02:20]
This is a different kind of apple now New York City[00:02:22]
Or like an orange I love LA[00:02:27]
What a delight so bright and juicy[00:02:32]
Yeah[00:02:36]
But a little spicy to the taste[00:02:37]
USA[00:02:41]
The immigrants are here to stay to help build America[00:02:43]
The immigrants ain't going nowhere they're here for America[00:02:53]
I am a boy[00:03:00]
Fighting for a better life[00:03:04]
Fighting through the grunge[00:03:07]
Yeah[00:03:11]
America remember Ellis Island[00:03:13]
We all came here to take the plunge[00:03:18]
I hope you understand it[00:03:22]
That I can't I can't I[00:03:23]
We all hold this truth to be self-evident[00:03:25]
That all men are created equal[00:03:30]
Yeah[00:03:34]
Bring your sick bring your sick[00:03:36]
Bring your needy bring your needy[00:03:38]
In the early evening by the dawn's early light[00:03:41]
Remember the founding fathers[00:03:46]
Yeah[00:03:50]
Home of the brave land of the free[00:03:52]
You and me[00:03:55]
You and me[00:03:56]
From the New York island from sea to shining sea[00:03:57]
