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 
Working hard for my nana 

And that shook up the Big Apple tree 
Mohombi 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'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 
Working hard for my nana 

Nobody gonna take her from me (3x) 
My beautiful nana 
(2x) 

A crazy hard could, could never stop 
Well my heart is crazy about you girl 
And you caught my heart like a falling star 

Nobody gonna take her away (2x) 
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 gonna take her from me (3x) 
My beautiful nana 
(2x)
