Just my take on things.

大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)
老外Style (Laowai Style)

大哥是长期住在北京的老外
(I’m the type of Laowai who’s lived in Beijing a long time)
吃成都美食吃好多的地沟油的老外
(The type of Laowai who’s eaten so much ditch oil at Chengdu Cuisine)
跟卖煎饼的一起逃避城管老外
(The type of Laowai who evades the municipal authorities with jianbing sellers)
超级老外性的老外
(A super Laowai type of Laowai)
哥是那种老外 (I’m that type of Laowai)
在三里屯泡妞的那种老外
(Who picks up chicks at Sanlitun)
跟老板唱K爱喝茅台的老外
(Who loves to drink Maotai with his boss at KTV, that kind of Laowai)
无意在五道口酒吧里买假酒的老外
(Who unintentionally drinks fake alcohol at Wudaokou, that kind of Laowai)

大哥那种老外 (I’m that type of Laowai)

北京生活丰富多彩 (Life in Beijing is rich & vibrant)
打架以后人肉搜索 (After a fight, people search for my identity online)
北京这城市，我不想离开 (This city of Beijing, I don’t want to leave)
但大使馆未保护我 (But the embassy won’t protect me)
哥们儿姐们儿跟我大声的说 (Guys and Gals sing it with me loud!)

大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)
老外Style (Laowai Style)
大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)
老外Style (Laowai Style)
大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)

大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)
黑！老外来了！ (Heeey! The Laowai is here!)
大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)

哥是教英语口音还是太浓的老外
(I’m the type of Laowai teaches English but has too heavy an accent)
老百姓困在安检我顺利通过去的老外
(The type of Laowai passes through security checks while regular Chinese people get inspected)
打黑车的时不会被还假币的老外
(The type of Laowai who won’t get passed fake bills by illegal cabs)
超级老外性的老外
(A super Laowai type of Laowai)
哥是那种老外 (This guy’s that kind of Laowai)
在景点拍合照的老外
(Who takes group photos at tourist sites)
那种老外 (That kind of Laowai)
在中关村买水货老外
(Who buys black market electronics at Zhongguancun)
那种老外 (That kind of Laowai)
缺钱吃麻辣烫的老外
(Who eats malatang when he’s short on cash)
那种老外 (That kind of Laowai)

就是那种老外 (I’m that kind of Laowai)

北京生活丰富多彩 (Life in Beijing is rich & vibrant)
打架以后人肉搜索 (After a fight, people search for my identity online)
北京这城市，我不想离开 (This city of Beijing, I don’t want to leave)
但大使馆未保护我 (But the embassy won’t protect me)
哥们儿姐们儿跟我大声的说 (Guys and Gals sing it with me loud!)

大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)
老外Style (Laowai Style)
大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)
老外Style (Laowai Style)
大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)

黑！老外来了！ (Heeey! The Laowai is here!)
大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)
黑！老外来了！ (Heeey! The Laowai is here!)
大哥是老外Style (This guy is Laowai Style)

你跟我玩儿，你跟我一起玩儿 (Come play with me, everyone play with me)

Although points goes to Laowai for “more creative” lyrics but that’s not saying much either. Let’s just all stick with the original.

Plus supporting cast look like the normal crew of Wudoakou bandana-and-sunglasses-at-night-wearing cunts who wreck Sanlitun every weekend. The Beijinger’s one harmless enough, though.
