“London Boy” is a song by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her seventh studio album, Lover (2019). The song was written and produced by Swift, Jack Antonoff, and Sounwave, the latter serving as co-producer.
This provides additional writing credit for Cautious Clay, as a result of interpolating Clay’s song “Cold War”. An upbeat bubblegum pop song with a reggae influence, the song is about a love infatuation from London, inspired by Swift’s experiences in the city.
The lyrics of “London Boy” examine the names of various locations and cultural icons associated with London, from the perspective of a woman from Tennessee, USA. It features a word intro spoken by Idris Elba.
The song received favorable reviews from general music critics, but met with mixed reception from British critics, who praised the production but felt the lyrics did not represent London well. Following the release of Lover, it charted on the Australian, Canadian, and US singles charts. Swift performed the song live on BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge and at Capital FM’s Jingle Bell Ball.

Lyrics London Boy – Taylor Swift
–
[Idris Elba and James Corden:]
We can go driving in, on my scooter
Uh, you know, just ’round London
Alright, yeah
I love my hometown as much as Motown, I love SoCal
And you know I love Springsteen, faded blue jeans, Tennessee whiskey
But something happened, I heard him laughing
I saw the dimples first and then I heard the accent
They say home is where the heart is
But that’s not where mine lives
You know I love a London boy
I enjoy walking 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)
And now I love high tea, stories from Uni, and the West End
You can find me in the pub, we are watching rugby with his school friends
Show me a gray sky, a rainy cab ride
Babes, don’t threaten me with a good time
They say home is where the heart is
But God, I love the English
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
So please show me Hackney
Doesn’t have to be Louis V up on Bond Street
Just wanna be with you
Wanna be with you
Stick with me, I’m your queen
Like a Tennessee Stella McCartney, on the Heath
Just wanna be with you (Wanna be with you)
Wanna be with you (Oh)
You know I love a London boy, I enjoy walking SoHo
Drinking in the afternoon (Yeah)
He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet
Darling, I fancy you (You)
Took me back to Highgate, met all of his best mates
So I guess all the rumors are true (Yeah)
You know I love a London boy (Oh)
Boy (Oh), I fancy you (I fancy you, ooh)
So please show me Hackney
Doesn’t have to be Louis V up on Bond Street
Just wanna be with you
I, I, I fancy you
Oh whoa, oh, I
Stick with me, I’m your queen
Like a Tennessee Stella McCartney, on the Heath
Just wanna be with you (Ooh)
Wanna be with you
I fancy you (Yeah), I fancy you
Oh whoa, ah
