Dominici - My New Land lyrics

rate me

I'm a lowly worker for very little pay<br />

Have to get up early every day<br />

Just to get some pennies in my hand<br />

<br />

I made some new friends and they tell me<br />

This is the land of opportunity<br />

I could rise above if I make my stand<br />

<br />

I could be a king in my new land<br />

Could have everything in my new land<br />

I could take some threads and make a coat, <br />

Have my own shop and I could vote<br />

I think I want to stay in my new land<br />

<br />

I never knew that freedom could be so sweet<br />

If I had a girl my life would be complete<br />

We could walk the beaches, hand in hand<br />

<br />

We could build a house with a white gate<br />

I could walk the dog and we could stay up late<br />

Bringing up the baby would be so grand<br />

<br />

I could be a king in my new land<br />

Could have everything in my new land<br />

I could take some threads and make a coat, <br />

Have my own shop and I could vote<br />

I think I'll make a note to change my plan<br />

<br />

In my new land<br />

In my new land<br />

I could be a king in my new land<br />

Could have everything in my new land<br />

Learning how to sing in my new land<br />

My new land, my new land
