Mister Rider

Take am slow, mister rider
Mister rider
You dey hold me for the okada
For the okada
The engine sabi love matter
Love matter
Mister rider, no reach on time

Slow, slow
Easy o
Slow, slow
Easy o

Your helmet too big for your head
You dey adjust am, dey laugh
The engine rev like say na race
I tap him shoulder, settle am
Your arms circle round my jacket
Soft and light like one question
The bend press us close together
And the question turn to answer

Miss the turn, miss the turn
I go pay you double
Miss the turn, miss the turn
I go pay you double

Take am slow, mister rider
Mister rider
You dey hold me for the okada
For the okada
The engine sabi love matter
Love matter
Mister rider, no reach on time

We pass the suya line, you point
I signal rider, we branch
Two sticks, extra yaji, standing
Yaji pepper shine for your lips
Back on the bike you hold tighter
No be fear again, na choice
The city lights dey run backwards
Like dem dey rewind for us

Your street don show, too soon
The rider look me for mirror
Him slow down without me asking
Even him sabi the assignment
Him choose the longest route

Take am slow, mister rider
Mister rider
You dey hold me for the okada
For the okada
The engine sabi love matter
Love matter
Mister rider, no reach on time
No reach on time

Extra yaji
Mister rider
