The constitution was about
The constitution was about
To believe and think and speak
They can work out all their differences
She says, "Give me your homeless
Their distance in the dance
Behind this open door"
And anyway sweet lady
That all are created equal
There's a lot of us out here
In school that's what they said
This country's got so big
And many good men died
Come see, what we believe
And given half a chance
Wasn't that the idea
When we started out?
Your landless, and your poor
We hardly know one another
Maybe more next week
In school that's what they said
How many eyes
I just wanted you to know
An immigrant like all
It's hard to think someone you don't know
When they saw you for how many years?
Who came before
So, we could have the freedom
Who like to see your torch's glow
Could really be your brother
But wasn't that the idea
Saw the Promised Land
When we started out
Through how many tears
