Lyrics to Immigrant Girl
Immigrant Girl
(Gene Clark, Pat Robinson)
Her ancient Egyptian eyes
Look out on to the barrio
Oo-oo ? sha-la-la-la
You stack the magazines
While you greet the others
Oo-oo ? immigrant girl
Your grandmother gave you her Egyptian ring
Just to wear when you find a husband
And you see everything ?
Around this all American ?
Oo-oo ? sha-la-la-la
The radio stations
Play rock 'n roll for you
Oo-oo ? immigrant girl
In my heart, I see a memory
Maybe it was some other time, some other place ?
And you're still longing to be free
You can become anything you want in free America ?
And you want a piece of this American life ?
Oo-oo ? sha-la-la-la
Won't you be my baby
Oh won't you be my lady
Life is long in America
We don't live in a magazine stand
You see the sun go down ?
On this dark old LA town
Oo-oo ? sha-la-la-la
Everything you touch ? all you see ? with every new face ?
You will find ? immigrant girl
