Shinehead - Jamaican In New York lyrics

[Spoken intro] Don't drink coffee, I drink roots, my dear And I love my morning ride You can see it in my motions when I walk I'm a Jamaican in New York See me walking down Church Avenue With my hat leaned to one side You can see it when I walk I'm a Jamaican in New York I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm a Jamaican in New York I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm a Jamaican in New York Roughness makes man as someone said He is the rude boy of the day Takes a man to make a stand, sometimes get wild Be yourself, no matter what they say I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm a Jamaican in New York I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm a Jamaican in New York Niceing up our party can lead to notoriety Pretty soon they'll know you as the Don Because we live so hearty, Babylon don't like we Still we're gonna party till the sun And you don't stop, you proceed And this is the riddim and rhyme you need Shinehead's gonna take the lead [?] All yard man, put up your hand And let the world know that you have ambition All yard man, put up your hand And let the world know that you have ambition Well a we, well a we a yardy A weh we de? We de a New York City A weh se come yah fa? No to make some money We have to do that to feed we family Chucking badness does not make a man And we're not the only ones with guns Confront your enemies, outsmart them if you can But if all else fails, you better run Roughness makes man, as someone said He is the rude boy of the day Takes a man to make a stand, sometimes get wild Be yourself, no matter what they say I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm a Jamaican in New York I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm a Jamaican in New York I'm an alien I'm a Jamaican in New York I'm an alien I'm a Jamaican in New York [Spoken outro]
