The Refugee

Oh, oh
She’s the refugee.
I see your face,
I see you staring back at me.
Oh, oh
She’s 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.

Her papa go to war.
He gonna fight,
But he don’t know what for.
Her papa go to war
Her mama say one day he’s gonna come back from far away.

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 promise land.

She’s a pretty face,
But at the wrong time and at the wrong place.
She’s a pretty face.
Her mama say one days she’s gonna live in america.
Yeah, america.

She’s a refugee.
She’s coming amn, she’s coming for company.
She’s a refugee.
Her mama say one day she’s gonna live in america.
