Welcome to the New World

Lyrics
What more could one expect of something new? A feast of saints and sinners A home-spun web of bold beginnings This new world boasts a most collective stew And so indeed I'll plunge into the stream Here, no regret no longer lingers New pa**ions here I'll cling to In America, I'll reconstruct my dreams The German and the Irish flock here with hope and family And melody of language fills the streets Like myself, therе are the French, who bring thеir old-world common sense While the Spanish bring their fine nobility Hear the tribal garb and manners of the free people of color Seems strange to me when others are enslaved This New Orleans, this melting pot Is overflowing with cast-off soup And dragged who freely came across the waves And here there's cheer in the streets As they shout out the windows Welcome to the New World! Of the Cajun and the Creole Welcome to the New World The preening tuft of Europeans Shake loose your pious shackles For some good old superst**ion Welcome to the New World Welcome to the New World! And here there's cheer in the streets (Cheer in the streets) As they shout out the windows (Shout out the windows) Welcome to the New World! Of the Cajun and the Creole (Cajun and the Creole) Welcome to the New World The preening tuft of Europeans Shake loose your pious shackles For some good old superst**ion Welcome to the New World For a wealth of new beginnings
