John King - City of Immigrants lyrics

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, I'm livin' city of immigrants [All of us are immigrants, every daughter, every son] City of sweat, city of tears, city of prayers, livin' in a city of immigrants [Everyone is everyone, all of us are immigrants] City of stone, city of steel, city of wheels, livin' in a city of immigrants [All of us are immigrants, every daughter, every son] City of bone, city of skin, city of pain, city of immigrants [Everyone is everyone, all of us are immigrants] [All of us are immigrants (x2)]
