(Its E Kelly)

I dey sing, you dey dance, you dey whine
When you cry I go wipe your eyes
Gimme your bag make I fill am with dough
I'm the only one, you no need another
I'll hold you down
You know this, you notice, bebe
And I've told you now
I'm right here, I dey for you, bae

E no get anywhere wey I wan go
If I could I would love you in my next life
I don't really care about tomorrow
As long as you dey right now I go dey fine
You gat me high when I'm low low

All these things wey I dey talk right now
