Lyrics
If you want to carry come and shake your body
If you want to come along and dance, move your body
See wetin you carry you go kill somebody
Take a look at what you possess; it could be deadly
Oko Iyawo to sese marry oya shake your body
For the married ones, especially the bride, come on, dance
And if you're single and you're searching
And if you're single and looking, find someone to dance with

Hold your canvas ijo yi ma bow down
Hold your dance moves; this dance will make them bow down

Showcasing jewelry and asking for a drink to relax
Fine girls ko mole seh you see behind
Beautiful girls, don't hide; let me see your behind
Abeg serve me hot drink make I free the mind
Request for a drink to free the mind
Why you still sitting down like you're not feeling fine
Observations on people not fully enjoying the party; a mention of potential competition
