I came here to work |
|
And take up the rope |
|
Give contributuion |
|
In this land of hope |
|
I'll bleed for your king |
|
I'll die for your queen |
|
Give all and some more |
|
To your western dream |
|
Locked in the ghetto |
|
Waiting for news |
|
Standing on the corner |
|
With those immigration blues |
|
My cousin told me |
|
Steal your mother's ring of gold |
|
Raise every single dollar |
|
Oh before we get too old |
|
Now I'm standing in an endless line |
|
Waiting for some news |
|
My dignity cries for mercy |
|
With those immigration blues |
|
Don't know where my cousin went to |
|
Maybe they sent him back alone |
|
I miss the ones |
|
I left so badly |
|
Maybe I should have stayed back home |
|
Somebody knows a dealer |
|
Now it seems |
|
I don't get to choose |
|
So I got to try whatever |
|
Kick out these immigration blues, yeah |
|
Those immigration blues |
