The Immigrants - Gaby Moreno/Van Dyke Parks

Lyrics by：David Rudder

So much trouble in the home

Of the brave and the land of the free

Am I an immigrant or am

I a new slave made for all brutality

I don't think so

Is it that man has lost his reason

You can't even blame the heat

They're moving like jackals

In the hunting season

In the hunting season

And the refugee's soul is the meat

Oh yeah yeah

The immigrants are here to stay

To help build America

The immigrants ain't going nowhere they're here for America

Fighting for a better life

Fighting through the grunge

Grunge

America remember Ellis Island

We all came here to take the plunge

Plunge

I hope you understand it

Please take it take it and I

Take me away now with your sweet soul calypso

A cumbia and a reggae

Like a punta rock and a salsa samba

A high life bhangra merengue

I think remebe tu

In other words

Yeah

This is a different kind of apple now New York City

Or like an orange I love LA

What a delight so bright and juicy

Yeah

But a little spicy to the taste

USA

The immigrants are here to stay to help build America

The immigrants ain't going nowhere they're here for America

I am a boy

Fighting for a better life

Fighting through the grunge

Yeah

America remember Ellis Island

We all came here to take the plunge

I hope you understand it

That I can't I can't I

We all hold this truth to be self-evident

That all men are created equal

Yeah

Bring your sick bring your sick

Bring your needy bring your needy

In the early evening by the dawn's early light

Remember the founding fathers

Yeah

Home of the brave land of the free

You and me

You and me

From the New York island from sea to shining sea
