Love In America

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'mma 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've walking, I've be running, I've 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
Working hard for my nana

And that shook up the Big Apple tree
Marly made the whole nation scream
I said there might be a place for me
So i had to face the Atlantic Sea

I've been looking, I've been longing, I been searching for this girl
I've be looking, I've be running, I've 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
Working hard for my nana

Nobody gon take her away [x3]
My beautiful nana

Nobody gon take her from me[x3]
My beautiful nana

A crazy heart could, could never stop
Well my heart is crazy about you girl
Thank God my eye caught the falling star

Nobody gonna take her away [x2]
From me

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

Nobody gon take her away [x3]
My beautiful nana

Nobody gon take her from me[x3]
My beautiful nana

My beautiful na-na
