For real enuh

New York crew we haffi big unuh up see it

We have just

One step up inna life and strive said way you hear

Yes

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

Yes

Roughness maketh 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

Nicing up a 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 'til the sun

And you don't stop you proceed

Is this is the riddim and rhyme you need

Shinehead's gonna take the lead

Me nah show no man

Will yeah crue the man

Settle unuh self

All yard man put up on your hand

And make you world know say on a ambition

All yardie man put up on a hand

And make you world know say on a ambition

Well a we well a we a yardie

A well I we

A weh we deh 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 maketh 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

On the strip of reality

Anyway all crew and all massive
