I'm gonna make it

I'm gonna get it

I'm gonna make it oooh

I'm gonna get it

I'm gonna make it

I'm gonna make it oooh

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

Oooh 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

Oooh 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 oooh

Be yourself no matter what they say

Be yourself no matter what they say

Be yourself no matter what they say
