Lyrics
REPAIRED & FOUND
Well you crossed the Atlantic Ocean
To this promised land
And if not for your courage
I would not be right here where I stand
Now you boarded an ocean liner
With your dreams and a mandolin
Sometimes there's nothing finer
Than a new place to begin
CHORUS:
I can feel the traces of
Generations handed down
Things once lost or broken baby
Somehow get REPAIRED AND FOUND
Well you worked in these factories
Of steel and concrete
Savin' up to buy your own little shop
Right there down the street
You must've done some good
Serving your paisan'
I look around the old neighborhood and find
That most everyone is gone
but...
CHORUS
So I will offer my thanks
To you and your fine son
Though you've both flown on your angel wings
When everything's said and done
CHORUS (repeat)
