Chulo eh e eh eh

One white shoe and one knicker
Gat no house and I gat no car
One black boy from Africa
Gat big dreams wey go take me far
All I wanna do is make the world smile
And music I dey do is my only substance
And I really got plans to make the world dance eh
And make the world dance

As I get money for my pocket balance eh
I go just enter the place balance eh
As I get money for my pocket balance eh
I go just call all my guys balance eh
As I get Dollars for my pocket balance eh
I go just dey do anyhow eh balance eh
As I get money for my pocket balance eh
Me and all my girls like to party legga hello

Eh baby gimme gimme gimme that tina yo
I no come here to play I wan scatter the place
People try to slow me down hold me down I tell them no no no
I just wanna enjoy my life be I wanna fun my race
Back in the days wey me I broke
All of them treat me like a volley ball
Right now my life is a miracle
All the ladies wanna lick me like a lollipop
