Immigrant Song Too |
I come from a land |
So far away |
I’ve come to make a living |
Then get away |
Better prospects here |
That’s what they say |
Better people here |
That’s what they say |
Stepping off the boat |
With my suitcase in my hand |
Be damned by the eyes |
Of the immigration man |
The purpose of my visit |
Is questioned and doubted |
Suspicion fails |
They don’t believe I was invited |
Feeling all alone |
There ain’t no place to call home |
I’m here from a land |
Far from my family |
Brought on the wave |
Of new opportunity |
Come and help the motherland |
Is what they said |
Suitcase in my hand |
To a foreign land |
Stepping down the street |
Trying to find my own two feet |
Turned away by landlords |
Who refuse to let me in |
A boarder in a hostel |
I’m caged like an animal |
The odds were stacked against me |
For my own survival |
Feeling all alone |
There ain’t no place to call home |
They’re clearing the way |
For a deportation order |
They wanna put me on |
The first plane home tomorrow |
But in their haste |
They overlooked my visa |
Saddened faces |
See that I am Bona Fida |
There ain’t no place to call home |
