Remo Fernandes - Welcome, My Child Lyrics

Welcome, my child, you're welcome
We're so happy to have you here
You've come from many a mile
To make somebody smile
So welcome, my child, you're welcome

Welcome, my child, you're welcome
You do seem to belong right here
You'll never ta-ta
To lovely Calcutta
So welcome, my child, you're welcome

Your job will be to teach
The children of the rich
Teach them to be proud
Of what our convent's all about
How to pour their tea
Without spilling from the spout
How to always seem to know
Just what they're talking about
Teach them how to be real ladies
Real propah memsahib ladies
Collegeable, knowledgeable
Corrigible, carriageable
Eligible, marriageable Ladies
Tralala lalalala lalala lalala lalala

So, welcome, my child, you're welcome
We're delighted to have you here
There's a lot of work to be done
And we can use another nun
So welcome, my child, you're welcome

Welcome, my child, you're welcome
We're enchanted to have you here
Loretto is the name
The ghetto's not our game
Welcome, my child, you're welcome
Welcome, my child, you're welcome
So, welcome, my child, you're welcome
