Welcome to My country

Verse 1:Wyclef Jean:
Man,
When its cold in New York (uh)
I jump on my G4 (yeah)

Under the coconut tree (yeah)
We gonna bounce the world with a new dance from the refugee

Chorus:Wyclef Jean:
Every body do the kompa
(all the ways)
Every body do the kompa
(keep your hips in place)
Every body do the kompa
(2 steps get closa)
Every body do the kompa
(wind your body like you know her)
I see y'all do the macarena
I see you dance to the salsa
I see you move it to the cha cha (slide)
Every body do the kompa
