New York City Pakistan
The Roches
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."
