Englishman In New York

Englishman In New York (Originally Performed by Sting) - Various Artists

I don't drink coffee

I take tea my dear

I like my toast done on one side

And you can hear it in my accent when I talk

I'm an Englishman in New York

See me walking down Fifth Avenue

A walking cane here at my side

Take it everywhere I walk

I'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an alien

I'm legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an alien

I'm legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

If manners make a man as someone said

He's that hero of the day

It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile

Be yourself no matter what they say

Be yourself no matter what is it

Be yourself no matter what is it

Be yourself no matter what is it

Be yourself no matter what is it

I'm an alien

I'm legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an alien

I'm legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an alien

I'm legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an alien

I'm legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

Takes more than combat gear to make a man

Takes more than a license for a gun

Confront your enemies

Avoid them when you can

A gentleman will walk but never run
