Give me your hungry, |
|
Give me your tired, |
|
Give me your homeless, |
|
Give me your wanderers, |
|
Statue of Liberty, |
|
Standing in the harbour, |
|
This is America, |
|
We try a little harder. |
|
Oh, this is America, ah. |
|
We set the standards and everyone will follow, |
|
We've got our own values, |
|
But they're built on the dollar, |
|
Statue of Liberty, |
|
Standing in the harbour, |
|
This is America, |
|
We try a little harder. |
|
Oh, but now it's tumbling, fakin', quakin', |
|
Tremblin' on its own foundation, |
|
There's been so many warnings, |
|
Too late the old lady's fallin', |
|
The only thing to do is to get out of the way, |
|
Anything can happen in the U. S. of A. |
|
Ain't no use anymore in tryin' harder, |
|
Statue of Liberty sinkin' in the harbour. |
|
You can be a millionaire by steppin' on the needy, |
|
Words of equality, but they're written for the greedy, |
|
Statue of Liberty, yeah, yeah, |
|
Standing in the harbour, |
|
This is America, we try a little harder. |
|
Oh, this is America, ah. |
|
Give me your hungry, |
|
Give me your tired. |
|
Give me your homeless, |
|
Give me your wanderers. |
|
Give me your hungry, |
|
Give me your tired. |
|
Give me your homeless, |
|
Give me your wanderers. |
