Yeah yeah… (Uh uh!)
When the rain fall, you no run away (Never!)
When the storm blow, you still dey (Dey my side!)
O baby, na you I go celebrate (Celebrate!)
Verse 1 (Singer A – storytelling)
When I no get shishi, when my pocket dry (Dry o!)
You dey hold my hand, say “baby we go fly” (We go fly!)
Others laugh me say, “This one no go shine” (Shine o!)
But you dey whisper hope, say “honey take your time”
Verse 2 (Singer B – contrast)
Another woman see me then, she waka go (She waka go!)
Say the hustle too long, say my fire low (My fire low!)
Now tables don turn, blessing dey overflow (Overflow!)
She dey knock my door, but baby I tell her no (Tell her no!)
Pre-Chorus (Both – call & response)
(A) Where you dey when hunger dey bite?
(B) I no see you that time o!

(Both) Na she be my queen, na she dey my vein

She stayed (She stayed!)
When the road rough and hard (So hard!)
She stayed (She stayed!)
When I no get any card (No card!)
She stayed (She stayed!)
Now blessing dey overflow (Overflow!)
O baby, na you I go love forever (Forever o!)
Verse 3 (Singer A – uplift)
Now we dey ride clean, we dey shine bright (Shine bright!)
Everywhere we go, people dey high five (High five!)

Na you be my angel, my sugar, my wife (My wife!)
Bridge (Singer B – with echoes)
(A) Some go love you when money dey… (Only when e dey!)
