He who has not got to know the truth,

Momma packed my bags for me,
Yyyyyyyyy
Said: fly away son and be free.
Heyeah
There's one heaven, just one, babe,
Oooooooo
And it's called the U.S.A.
Heyeah, Heyeah, Hey ye ye
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door,
Heyeah
I am knocking on the US embassy's door,
Heyeah
So I went to the American embassy, saying: I want to get through the heaven's door
and they say: that's here, but woa, woa! First you gotta tell us: are you useful?
And then I go: I am So useful, I am a humanities Ph.D.,
I can wash clothes, cook and clean.
I can babysit!
I can even do the washing up.
The other day was my auntie's birthday
and she went ammock because of a pile of dirty dishes.
But I said don't worry auntie, and washed them all! So you tell me, am I useful?
They said: "Of course You are!" And I went flying to America!
Momma writes because she cares:
Eeeeeeee
How's it going over there?
Heyah
Momma, momma, I've been blessed:
Oooooooo
It's seventh heaven... more or less..
Yeah, Yeah, Ye, ye, ye.
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven´s door.
Heyah
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven´s door.
Heyah
Listen y'all, I'm gonna call my momma:
Pi, pi, pi, pi, pi, pi.
Mom? Hi mom! I'm gonna be brief, cause these calls they cost a lot.
Life's good.
I work in a bank,
that's in an undertaker's...
No, it's practically the same thing here. It's owned by an Italian guy.
The more problems he's got, the more work there is for us.
I'll explain everything when you come here,
but I beg you: don't take a plane, cause that's too expensive!
No, don't take a ship ether
I don't know, you'll manage...
Pi!
Oh ***, it's over a minute now! Oh! Dog's bone! Mom...
Uuuuu!
Mother! Mother!
She packed all my stuff, the poppy cake, the cheesecake and all!
Mom, grab the guitar!
Few people know about this but, in high school, my mom played in a rock band.
It all began during a P.A. class.
Before the class, she inadvertently ate a metal ball,
about this size, she wanted to tumble but she kept falling to the side.
Five people escorted her,
but they all would fall to the ground,
and then my sweet momma produced a guitar and started playing...
And she won big time! She got an E-!
Mother!!! Ooooo!

Uuu!
Thank you mother.
Mother!
Mamasza. Oooo.
Mutter! Ouu.
Maminka.
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven´s door.
Teachers, don't fool yourselves, you can't live on this kind of salary!
Nurses and doctors, why go on strike when you can go abroad?!
Anesthesiologists, let me tell a joke here, don't fall asleep at the switch, there's an opportunity.
Hey, ye, ye, ye, ye, ye
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven´s door.
Oooooooo
Thank you.
[applause]
Thank you mother.
