《Love Like An Immigrant》歌词

[00:00:00] Love Like An Immigrant - Carrie Newcomer

[00:00:12] Grandpa came over on the boat

[00:00:18] His voice was thick with the old world and smoke

[00:00:23] And ran in Chicago 'til he met my grandma

[00:00:29] The he moved to South Bend with his new 14 year old bride

[00:00:40] So mamma and Louie and the rest of the family

[00:00:46] Lived in a duplex next to my great grandma Baldoni

[00:00:51] And believed in the hopes that can grow in a country

[00:00:57] Even after my grandma and grandpa went their separate ways

[00:01:08] He said "Love who you are love what it's meant

[00:01:14] Live out your love like a new immigrant"

[00:01:29] My dad drove a mile truck before he was 14

[00:01:34] Came back from Korea in 1953

[00:01:40] Met up with my mother introduced by his sister

[00:01:45] They put a dime in the juke box took a turn on the dance floor

[00:02:02] He said "Love who you are love what it's meant

[00:02:08] Live out your love like a new immigrant"

[00:02:17] So I came along after one and before another

[00:02:22] Grew up on the Beatles and Jack Kennedy's murder

[00:02:28] I went looking for something in more than one country

[00:02:33] Fell in love once or twice broke my heart but I'd try it again

[00:02:45] So this is the new world not the old world

[00:02:51] Let me lie close beside you and whisper have you heard

[00:02:56] The sound of the singing from some bright new country

[00:03:02] And catch it's been calling us home to it lately

[00:03:13] So "love who you are love what it's meant

[00:03:19] Live out your love like a new immigrant

[00:03:25] "love who you are love what it's meant

[00:03:31] Live out your love like a new immigrant
