Lyrics
Owee
Ogogoro don carry all my stamina
I don make my choice and na Amina
Oroma toh fine niger minna
She do me okp′iholo and i mean am
Owee owee
Sun sun sungba ko funmi kan si
No do me three quarter o do me complete
My baby na wonder o
Wonder wonder wonder
Your hands on your toes (fine girl)
But no go tell anybody say you see me for here
Choir master ni mi no go do me unaware
You know i’m on the run, gimme na slow wine
Onome get up and dance (good girl)
See her body badder, she finer than her peers
No keep me waiting, this is not fair
To collect my money show me some flair
That′s my girl
Omo ele lepa
Sexy girl
Ikebe like water
Fine girl

Open your ears cos i no fit shout
Out of all these other girls, na you i see
Oh If i touch will you say no?
If i come closer will you say no
My baby na wonder o
Wonder wonder wonder
Your hands on your toes (fine girl)
But no go tell anybody say you see me for here
Choir master ni mi no go do me unaware
You know i’m on the run, gimme na slow wine
Onome get up and dance
See her body badder, she finer than her peers
No keep me waiting, this is not fair
To collect my money show me some flair
That′s my girl
