Came with a dream to America
Came with a dream and a daim
It came to leave for a better life
Kissing her father goodbye
You'll be a star in the future, my girl
With a smile you got nothing to lose
I loved an actress on Broadway one day
She's a lady on fifth avenue
She's a lady, nothing to lose
No one here to take you home
Wanted to work for a better life
But there was no work to be found
Wasted her youth in America
Life would be better at home
Followed the dream till the end of the world
Like a rainbow hits fading away
She paid the price with a youth and a pride
She's a lady on fifth avenue
She's a lady, nothing to lose
No one here to take you home
(Norwegian lines)
She's a lady on fifth avenue
Lady, nothing to lose
Lady on fifth avenue
Lady, nothing to lose
Lady on fifth avenue
Lady, nothing to lose
