Livin` in a city of immigrants
I don`t need to go travelin`
Open my door and the world walks in
Livin` in a city of immigrants
Livin` in a city that never sleeps
My heart keepin` time to a thousand beats
Singin` in languages I don`t speak
Livin` in a city of immigrants

City of black
City of white
City of light
City of innocents
City of sweat
City of tears
City of prayers
City of immigrants

Livin` in a city where the dreams of men
Reach up to touch the sky and then
Tumble back down to earth again
Livin` in a city that never quits
Livin` in a city where the streets are paved
With good intentions and a people`s faith
In the sacred promise a statue made
Livin` in a city of immigrants

City of stone
City of steel
City of wheels
Constantly spinnin`
City of bone
City of skin
City of pain
City of immigrants

All of us are immigrants
Every daughter, every son
Everyone is everyone
All of us are immigrants - everyone
Livin` in a city of immigrants
River flows out and the sea rolls in
Washin` away nearly all of my sins
Livin` in a city of immigrants

City of black
City of white
City of light
Livin` in a city of immigrants
City of sweat
City of tears
City of prayers
Livin` in a city of immigrants

City of stone
City of steel
City of wheels
Livin` in a city of immigrants

City of bone
City of skin
City of pain
City of immigrants
All of us are immigrants
