“Small Shop, Big Queue” lyrics
Small shop, big queue
Koyo, kóyo
Signboard small but the paint still fresh
Two clean chairs and the table set
Yesterday na me and my brother
Today see people for the corner
I no get billboard for the road
Na one good job make the next man know
You fit price am, I go tell you straight
We no dey shout to make person pay
Small shop, big queue
See the people wey dey wait
Small shop, big queue
We go serve you one by one
Koyo
Obokhian
Koyo
Obokhian
Boy wey help me don bring him cousin
I tell am sit, make I show am something
No need rush, make your hand dey steady
If you never ready, say you never ready
One old customer bring him daughter
Say na here we go do the matter
I write every order inside one book
Big respect for the time dem took
Small shop, big queue
See the people wey dey wait
Small shop, big queue
We go serve you one by one
No loud mouth
Let the work talk
No long story
See the door knock
Small shop, big queue
See the people wey dey wait
Small shop, big queue
We go serve you one by one
Koyo, kóyo
We still dey here
Small shop, big queue
Tomorrow, same time
