I found my love in America
And I made her my nana
I'm just a young man from Africa
Working hard for my nana
I found my love in America
And I made her my nana
I'm just a young man from Africa
Working hard for my nana
All I owned was a bag of dreams
Put it on my back and I hit the streets
I said "One day I'm a be a king
And build a castle for my queen"
I've been looking, I've been longing, I been searching for this girl
I'll be looking, I'll be running, I'll be flying all around the world
I found my love in America
And I made her my nana
I'm just a young man from Africa
