I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
MIm LA SIm SIm7
I like my toast done on the side
MIm LA SIm SIm7
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
MIm LA SIm SIm7
I'm an Englishman in New York
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
MIm LA SIm SIm7
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
MIm LA SIm SIm7
I'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an alien I'm a legal alien

If "manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
RE LA LA7
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
SIm SIm7 FA#
You could end up as the only one
SOL LA
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
SOLdim7 SIm
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run
If "manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
