Story behind the song
This song tells of my father & mother's trials to bring our family to the U.S. and how I really don't know much about him or her and all they went through to bring us here.
Lyrics
In 1956, my father took his wife and 4 children And left his family, friends, and belongings and... Flew away! To a wonderful new place... America! Papa......, I don't know you at all Papa......, I don't know you at all Life has marked your ten fingers tanned They tell stories of this hidden man Of the sorrow, and the victories Of the beauty, and all your dreams! Papa, I don't know you at all Papa, I don't know you at all Papa, Je ne te connais pas Papa, Je ne te connais pas La vie a marqué‚ tes dix doits Ils peuvent raconter des histoires Tes peines, mais aussi, tes victoires La beauté, et ton espoir! Papa, Je ne te connais pas Papa, Je ne te connais pas Qui est tu? D'ou viens tu? Que fait tu? Ou vas tu? We don't speak the same words we too Since my distance has grown from you But now I really need to speak to you Before your permanent rendezvous... Papa, I don't know you at all Papa, I don't know you at all Papa, I don't know you at all Papa, I don't know you at all Flew across the deep blue sea with his young family Flew across the deep blue sea with his young family Flew across the deep blue sea with his young family
