Statue of Liberty

In the early fifties and sixties and

seventies

American strechted forth her hands

and welcome us all

Yes we built and now they refuse us

Yes we can clean it and now they refuse us

Yes they mark us, they su su su

Yes we been there with good intention

Yes we been there with a working

intention

Yes we been there with a educational

intention

Yes we been there

So many different nationalities been

there too

Never been treated like we do

Never been handled like we do

Never been talked about like we do

We have a no intention to bomb threat

No intention to hijacking

No intention to hostage holding

Chorus:

Statue of Liberty light up your torch

so we can see

If it is a international problem

we want to see

It it is a political problem

we want to see

If it is a island problem

we want to see

If it is a continental problem

we want to see

Chorus

If I am right than I should be right

If I am wrong no argument

Remember people the statue stand

for equal rights and justice

Chorus

We were picking apples many years ago

Picking grapes many years ago

Hospital workers many years ago

Housekeepers many years ago

Chorus

It's not like we begging or demanding

anything

It's not like we begging or demanding

anything

It's just an example

It's just an example

Chorus

Chorus

In the forties and the fifties no one

was fair

In the sixties people start to share

In the seventies we were there

In the nineties immigration get scared
