Englishman / African in New York |
| I'm gonna make it |
| I'm gonna get it |
| I'm gonna make it ooh |
| I'm gonna get it |
| I'm gonna make it |
| I'm gonna make it ooh |
| I don't drink coffee, I take tea, my dear |
| I like my toast done on one side |
| But you can hear it in my accent when I talk |
| I'm an Englishman in New York |
| You see me walking down Fifth Avenue |
| A walking cane here at my side |
| I take it everywhere I walk |
| I'm an Englishman in New York |
| Whoa oh, I'm an alien |
| I'm a legal alien |
| I'm an Englishman in New York |
| Whoa oh, I'm an alien |
| I'm a legal alien |
| I'm an Englishman in New York |
| Every day I wake up here's a win |
| 'Cause I got here on a dream |
| I still hear my mother praying everyday |
| I'm an African in New York |
| You dey see am for my pride and energy |
| When I dey waka down the street |
| You can hear it in my accent when I talk |
| I'm an African in New York |
| Ooh oh, I'm an alien |
| I'm a legal alien |
| I'm an African in New York |
| Whoa oh, I'm an alien |
| I'm a legal alien |
| I'm an Englishman in New York |
| Ooh oh, I'm an alien |
| I'm a legal alien |
| I'm an African in New York |
| Whoa oh, I'm an alien |
| I'm a legal alien |
| I'm an Englishman in New York |
| I'm gonna make it |
| I'm gonna get it |
| I'm gonna make it ooh |
| I'm gonna get it (Be yourself, no matter what they say) |
| I'm gonna make it (Be yourself, no matter what they say) |
| I'm gonna make it ooh |
| (Be yourself, no matter what they say) |
