“Tie On The Table” lyrics

Tie on the table
This one no be meeting

All day I dey answer sir
All day I dey check the time
One more call before I leave
One more thing I need to sign
Now my friend dey near the speaker
Wave me over with a grin
I unbutton just the collar
Tell the DJ make e begin

Tie on the table
Work can wait
Tie on the table
This one no be meeting

Woman wey dey run the office
Know the step before we do
Quiet guy from the reception
Come outside in dancing shoes
Nobody dey check your title
Nobody dey ask your grade
You fit learn the step beside me
Everybody off today

Tie on the table
Work can wait
Tie on the table
This one no be meeting

Jẹ́ ká jó
Jẹ́ ká jó
I no get report tonight
Only rhythm on my mind

Phone on silent
Watch in the bag
You can find me by the music
Till the last song finish playing

Tie on the table
Work can wait
Tie on the table
This one no be meeting

Tie on the table
Work can wait
Tie on the table
This one no be meeting

Jẹ́ ká jó
Let the whole place move
Tie on the table
Monday still dey far from here
