In New York Harbor stands a statue
A big green doctor that you
See greeting the world’s refugees
She holds charts beneath her arm
And her flashlight’s an alarm
When she spots an infectious disease
Now I’m all for immigration, it built this crummy nation
The railroads, the lakes, the canals!
Every country on the map’s
Sent its fine, hard-working saps
Thanks a bundle, now how ‘bout some gals?
You can keep your wretched refuse
Your uncles and your nephews
Give me poor, tired, huddled masses of love
The inspectors out on Ellis
Can just send back all the fellas
Give me poor, tired, huddled masses of love
Women here are full of morals, decency and pride
They’ve been resting on their laurels
And their laurels are getting wide
They could use some competition
From someone with ambition
Give me poor, tired, huddled masses of love
Now when I watch them disembark
I’m like a wolf at Noah’s Ark
Those poor, tired, huddled masses of love
Such a strange exotic style
She must have been abroad awhile
Those poor, tired, huddled masses of love
She goes through without a passport
Those customs men aren’t fools
Britannia rules the waves
But America waives the rules
When we find we’re at a loss
For gals who come across
Those poor, tired, huddled masses of love
If I meet a sexy exile who’s trying to work in textile
Like those poor, tired, huddled masses of love
Then strictly out of pity, I’ll escort her ‘round the city
Ah, those poor, tired, huddled masses of love
If she’s poor, I’ll buy her dinner
And take her to a show
If she’s tired, I’ll fix the guest room
And off to bed she’ll go
But I won’t be quite as subtle when I get in a huddle
With those poor, tired huddled masses
Those sweet, young, lonesome masses
Those poor, tired, huddled masses of love
