Intro: [J Hus]
Ayo, I’m not even gonna lie, I used to call myself a ugly yout, but I’m not even a ugly yout
I’m a sexy yout, you understand?
Gyal all over the globe wanna uck me, you understand?
Verse 1: [Burna Boy & Jeremih]
Girls inna my crib
Zero Snapchat, zero Instagram posting
Fuck up the vibe (Yeah)
My dick start fallin’ like London Bridge
I don’t care if I saw you in a magazine (I-I-I), or if you’re on T.V
That one don’t mean nothin’ to me
Don’t need a shy ho, baby, I need a freak
Lick it like ice cream, as if you mean to be disgusting (I-I-I)
It’s nothin’ o
Chop my bana
Won’t say, “I love”
Then no stoppin’ o (I-I-I)
Go shoppin’ o
Fuck that (I-I), sh (Yeah)
Chorus: [Burna Boy & Jeremih]
Mi o fa Colorado o
Breakfast mo fa o
Mi o de ni mu Jekomo
Azul and Champagne ni ma mu o
I getti girls from the ghеtto
Bare girls from uptown
That’s the life of a city boy
Ah, ah, ah
O yе ke (Yeah), da mo
O ye ke, je lo
O ye ke (Yeah), jowo o
O ye ke, ah
O ye ke, eh
O ye ke
Verse 2: [Burna Boy & Jeremih]

Ogun lo ma pa won (I-I-I)
As they’re hatin’ on us

‘Cause you know say I come from Port harcourt (Yeah)
Dance Raman Jago (I-I-I)
Start to dey dance am like I do
