Song Lyrics
I got a palace out in port au prince, i m a haitian in america, like angelina ballerina
When papa first got his green card, but i can t go back and see my people in the ticks
Runnin from the immigration interrogation, we build the land
I m a haitian in america, and i used write these thoughts on a black and white notebook Jean, used to gaze at the twins before the birds hit em
If i ever break the law, on a six month visa
when papa first got his green card
Then he came and got me from haiti, to make it in america, who just saw the future beyond the dishwater
dancin outta control
dancin outta control
Told me i had one chance, your highness
told me i had one chance
In the legal valley and lookin for work in manhattan in america, told me i had one chance, to make it in america
Absolute lost and at sea and never see the airport, when i landed in america Haitian, we build the land
How you gon get us to new york?, i just got on a plane leavin haiti, worked seven jobs in america
He went underground like rats in the sewer, i got a palace out in port au prince
My papa was a haitian, like angelina ballerina
this is my haitian experience
this is my haitian experience
When i landed in america, i got a hundred acres and a whole lotta land
on a six month visa
first stop out in england
But she ain t lose her soul, daydream about the god, in the legal valley and lookin for work in manhattan in america
When papa first got his green card, when papa first got his green card
I m a haitian in america, but i can t go back and see my people in the ticks Experience, i got a palace out in port au prince
she will survive
It started with my imagination, to make it in america, when papa first got his green card
She smiles like she s in love, i m a haitian in america
dancin outta control
it s so rough to blend in i learned to how to rock
Dancin outta control, new york city, in the legal valley and lookin for work in manhattan in america
Worked seven jobs in america, this is the haitian experience Jean, haitian experience
he got to america
my excalibur
Worked seven jobs in america, worked seven jobs in america
Then he came and got me from haiti, i m a haitian in america
Told me i had one chance, i m a haitian in america, told me i had one chance
I got a hundred acres and a whole lotta land, so i learned to play guitar with dreams of becomin a rock star
And i used write these thoughts on a black and white notebook, to what i call lassie
It s so rough to blend in i learned to how to rock, runnin from the immigration interrogation, i m a haitian in america
then he came and got me from haiti
