See me walking down fifth Avenue
A Walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm Englishman In New York
Oh-woh, I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
(repeat)
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
(repeat refrain)
Modesty, propriety our lead to potoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety, blame it on society
At night a candle brighter than the sun
