Oonuu think say we come a foreign to a bed a roses, Oonuu got to think again. Sometimes it’s rough, Sometimes it’s tough Sometimes its ah Immigrants’ cry, help me wipe the tears from me eye Miss the piece a rock me say me nah tell no lie Immigrants cry, believe me you naw get no bly Blood, sweat and tears fi you daily supply. Say me left from Jamaica , me gone overseas With two suitcase and a big bag a dreams Reach inna America, me check out the scene Life inna Foreign isn’t all that it seem Immigrants’ cry, help me wipe the tears from me eye Miss the piece a rock me say me nah tell no lie Immigrants cry, believe me you naw get no bly Blood, sweat and tears fi you daily supply. Heh, nobody never say me affi walk inna snow Cover up from head to foot but the breeze still a blow Me affi punch the clock by a quarter to nine Like it or not me affi work overtime Immigrants’ cry, help me wipe the tears from me eye Miss the piece a rock me say me nah tell no lie Immigrants cry, believe me you naw get no bly Blood, sweat and tears fi you daily supply. In this land of opportunity some choose fast lane Them get the free ticket and get back pon the plane Get back pon the rock, Buju take care a that But a nuff man a suffer up yah, can’t turn back Immigrants’ cry, help me wipe the tears from me eye Miss the piece a rock me say me nah tell no lie Immigrants cry, believe me you naw get no bly Blood, sweat and tears fi you daily supply. When you think we deh a foreign with a strong cash flow Thru you no know whey the money a go First the tax, then the rent, phone and light bill high Lord knows a no try we no try Immigrants’ cry, help me wipe the tears from me eye Miss the piece a rock me say me nah tell no lie Immigrants cry, believe me you naw get no bly Blood, sweat and tears fi you daily supply. Me miss the breadfruit and the ackee and the piece a roast yam When things get hot we coulda jump inna pond And the mango and the coffee and the star apple stain Not to mention the sweet sugarcane
