Now its the time
To know who gat the money

Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh
Nwannem bi li e u no oh oh oh
Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh
Nwannem bi li e u no oh oh oh
Egwu a kai jai mara

Where the money at
Where the money at
Ikechukwu's gonna show you where the money's at
Follow me to the East where the money's at
When the fall in love with Geez where the money's at
Ibo boy so clean cuz the money fat
Don Jazzy gat me feeling like a money stack
If you gat the money show me where your money's at
We spend the money cuz we know we making money back
My money green my money ready to comeback
You wanna steal, you wanna leave or comeback
Cuz if l leave with your money l come back
If you could leave your money really could talk that
Where my money reach, your money cant touch that
You tell a big mouth talking he need to stop dat
Unless a big man work this's how you work that
Before you tell your wife how you lost that

Now its the time
To know who gat the money
Okwui mana
Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh
Nwannem bi li e u no oh oh oh
Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh
Nwannem bi li e u no oh oh oh
Egwu a kai jai mara

Get your money on the table let me count it
If you gat it put your money where your mouth is
My money long my money tall
Your money wrong my money ball
Your money little and my money like a mountain
Am like an ocean and you like a little Fountain
We burning money till the early morn
We burning money till the early morn on
Drop the money then we could do it all nite
Cuz l know my money is gonna make you wanna fight
Cuz am free with my money and you hold your money tight
And i sleep all day and you work all nite
My money is in your face your money is out of sight
Your money left my money really right
One last time if you really wanna try
Your money bark my money really bite

Now its the time
To know who gat the money
Okwui mana
Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh
Nwannem bi li e u no oh oh oh
Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh
Nwannem bi li e u no oh oh oh
Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh
Nwannem bi li e u no oh oh oh
Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh




Nwannem bi li e u no oh oh oh
Egwu a kai jai mara n di were ego e e eh
