“Jide Aka M” lyrics
(Nne, nne) eh-eh
Igba nkwu don start
Palm wine dey go round, drummers dey play
Your aunty dey look me, I no go away
You wear the coral, you carry the smile
Make we waka small, just stay my side
Jide aka m (I no go let go)
Jide aka m (I no go let go)
Nne, jide aka m
Crowd go shift, we go dey slow
Jide aka m (I no go let go)
Ife mi, ma beru, I dey here
Sunday for Awka, I go appear
Your papa ask my name, I talk am clear
Next family meeting, na we go dey there
Jide aka m (I no go let go)
Jide aka m (I no go let go)
Nne, jide aka m
Crowd go shift, we go dey slow
Nne (jide aka m)
I no go let go (eh)
