Avion Blackman - Third World Girl текст песни

Текст песни Third World Girl - Avion Blackman



I woke up early this morning with a song
To tell the people where I come from
You may hear it in the accent
The twang in my tongue
Yes I come from a little island
I grew up in the country
Where there was no running water from the tap
Sometimes our cupboards were empty
Love it was all we got
We'd sing all night with a broken guitar
Having the time of our life
How did we get so far, from home?
So I'm gonna take you there with me
Yes I'm gonna take you there so you can see
I'm a Third World girl
Living in a First World nation
Just a Third World girl
Living in a First World nation
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Don't forget where you're from
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Never forget where you're from
I still think my favorite drink
Is the water from a coconut
The best meal I ever taste;
Cooked on a three stone fire with love
Yes, the sweetest dessert just falls off a mango tree
And at night the most beautiful sight
Is the stars in the heavens above
Sing praise all night with a broken guitar
Having the time of our life
How did we get so far, from home?
So I'm gonna take you there with me
Yes I'm gonna take you there so you can see
I'm a Third World girl
Living in a First World nation
Just a Third World girl
Living in a First World nation
Life is only what you make it
Give me a lemon I'll make lemonade
Life is only what you make it
So just make it sweet
Third World girl
Living in a Western nation
Just a Third World girl
Living in a Western Nation
We are all foreigners
We are all aliens
Pilgrims living in a foreign land
We are all foreigners
But we are His ambassadors
Our citizenship is in Mount Zion
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Don't forget where you're from
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Never forget where you're from
