I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
Em A Bm/Hm Bm7/Hm7
I like my toast done on the side
Em A Bm/Hm Bm7
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm an EmEnglishman in ANew YBmork
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

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

You could end up as the only one
GGentleness, sobriety are rAare in this society
G Bm/Hm
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
