[Intro: Idris Elba & James Corden]
~#**************#~
We can go drivin in, on my scooter
~#**************#~
Uh, you know, just round London (Oh, Id—)
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
I love my hometown as much as Motown, I love SoCal
~#**************#~
And you know I love Springsteen, faded blue jeans, Tennessee whiskey
~#**************#~
But somethin happened, I heard him laughin
~#**************#~
I saw the dimples first and then I heard the accent
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
They say, “Home is where the heart is”
~#**************#~
But thats not where mine lives
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
You know I love a London boy
~#**************#~
I enjoy walkin Camden Market in the afternoon
~#**************#~
He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet
~#**************#~
Darling, I fancy you
~#**************#~
Took me back to Highgate, met all of his best mates
~#**************#~
So I guess all the rumors are true
~#**************#~
You know I love a London boy
~#**************#~
Boy, I fancy you (Ooh)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
And now I love high tea, stories from Uni and the West End
~#**************#~
You can find me in the pub, we are watchin rugby with his school friends
~#**************#~
Show me a gray sky, a rainy cab ride
~#**************#~
Babes, dont threaten me with a good time
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
They say, “Home is where the heart is”
~#**************#~
But, God, I love the English
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
You know I love a London boy
~#**************#~
I enjoy nights in Brixton, Shoreditch in the afternoon
~#**************#~
He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet
~#**************#~
Darling, I fancy you
~#**************#~
Took me back to Highgate, met all of his best mates
~#**************#~
So I guess all the rumors are true
~#**************#~
You know I love a London boy
~#**************#~
Boy, I fancy you
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
So please show me Hackney
~#**************#~
Doesnt have to be Louis V up on Bond Street
~#**************#~
Just wanna be with you
~#**************#~
Wanna be with you
~#**************#~
Stick with me, Im your queen
~#**************#~
Like a Tennessee Stella McCartney on the Heath
~#**************#~
Just wanna be with you (Wanna be with you)
~#**************#~
Wanna be with you, oh, woah
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
You know I love a London boy
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet
~#**************#~
