Prefab Sprout - America lyrics
[Prefab Sprout - America lyrics]
America, America
Now she's blushing in the sun
Don't reject the stranger
Knocking at your door
That orphan child exiled by war
She may become a doctor and
Work among the poor
A scientist who finds a cure
America, America
The immigrant, as you will know
Is drawn to freedom's light
America, do what's right
The immigrant, as you will know
Is drawn to freedom's light
America, do what's right america, America
Liberty welcomes everyone america, America
Now she's blushing in the sun
Don't reject the stranger knocking
At your door the orphan child exiled by war
She may become a doctor
Or work among the poor
Or a scientist who finds a cure
America, America
The immigrant, as you will know
Is drawn to freedom's light
America, do what's right
The immigrant, as you will know
Is drawn to freedom's light
America, do what's right
America, America your fields of wheat
Your amber grain
Your kindness will not be in vain
America, think again
