I wish I was in London, walkin' in the rain
   I wish I was in London, ooh I really miss the rain
   Oh, just take me home again
  
   I wish I was in England, I really miss the Queen
   I wish I was in England, ooh I really miss the Queen
   Oh, just take me home again
  
   What happened to the Empire? There's nothing in the Bank
   They gave away the Empire, without a word of thanks
   Oh just blame it on the Yanks
  
   So give me rule Brittania, Brittania rules the waves
   I live in California, but it's really not the same
   Oh, so take me home again
  
   Oh, please take me home again
   Oh, so take me home again...
