U2 - The Refugee lyrics

[U2 - The Refugee lyrics]

Wa, war she's the refugee
I see your face, I see you staring back at me
Wa, war she is the refugee
Her mama say one day she's
Gonna live in America

In the morning she is waiting
Waiting for the ship to sail, sail away

Wa, war her papa go to war
He gonna fight but he don't know what for
Wa, war her papa go to war
Her mama say one day he's gonna
Come back from far away

Oh help me how can you help me?

In the evening she is waiting
Waiting for her man to come
And take her by her hand
And take her to this promised land

Wa, war she's a pretty face
But at the wrong time in the wrong place
Wa, war she's a pretty face
Her mama say one days she's
Gonna live in America yeah, America

Wa, war she is a refugee she coming back
She come and keep you company
Wa, war she is a refugee
Her mama say one day she's
Gonna live in America
