New York City Pakistan Lyrics

    I'm gonna work a couple a years here
    Then i'm gonna go home
    Where they treat women with respect
    And don't make 'em go out of the house and work
    That's how the home gets wrecked."

    If you want to meet a man from pakistan
    You might try riding in a new york city taxi cab
    And if you are so inclined as to ask the man about his country
    I think that you will find it is a very different place
    From new york.
    I got in the cab and the man started to tell me about his
    Family
    And he said "miss are you interested in my country?"
    And i said "yes."
    So there we were and i found out about his country.
    "well" he said "l come from a place that is so much more
    Relaxed than here" and he told me that i would not believe
    The difference
    And i said to him "how would you explain it to me?"
    And he said "l'm gonna work a couple a years here
    And then i'm gonna go home
    Where they treat women with respect
    And don't make 'em go out of the house and work."
