The Immigrants’ Song

Tune: Don't Fence Me In
Gaggle: Seattle
Immigration

/em>

Oh, give us space, a little space,
Beneath the starry skies above.
Don’t kick us out!
Let us live and work
In this country that we love.
Don’t wall us out!

Like other immigrants who come here, poor and hungry,
We work hard and we spend our money,
Let us all be citizens of this fair country.
Don’t wall us out!

Oh, give us space, a little space,
Neath the starry skies above.
Don’t kick us out!
Let us live and work
In this country that we love.
Don’t wall us out!

Workers come from other lands
And make the U.S. strong.
Like us they earned the right to say,
“It’s where we all belong!”
We’re sharing stolen land
Let’s right that wrong!
Don’t wall us out!
