Rain For Surulere

Sky don black since morning time
Gutter full, road don turn river line
Mama shout, no go outside
But the ball dey call, we no fit hide
Kehinde carry the ball wey tear
Tunde for goal, him no dey fear
We use slippers mark the goalpost
Rain dey beat us, but we dey boast

Rain dey fall for Surulere (e dey fall)
We dey play, we no care
Mud for leg, sun go come later
Rain dey fall for Surulere

Now I big, I get office for VI
Rain start to fall, I look the sky
I remove my shoe, I carry my bag
I run go field, the small boys dey laugh
I dribble one, I dribble two
My suit don wet, I no mind, na true
I shoot the ball, e enter goal
For one minute, I be small boy for my soul

Rain dey fall for Surulere (e dey fall)
We dey play, we no care
Mud for leg, sun go come later
Rain dey fall for Surulere

Office fit wait (e fit wait)
Meeting fit wait (e fit wait)
But rain like this
E no dey wait

Rain dey fall for Surulere (e dey fall)
We dey play, we no care
Mud for leg, sun go come later
Rain dey fall for Surulere

E dey fall (e dey fall)
We no care (we no care)
E dey fall (e dey fall)
Surulere

We no care (e dey fall)
Surulere
