From the recording O'Town
Lyrics
Yeah
This one is a special dedication
To all my brethren and sisterhood
In O' town
Standing in solidarity for the new generation
Eh eh!
Oh yeah
Oh.. ho.. oh.. oh now!
I remember growing up in O' town
Oh yeah.. it's getting nostalgic
Am thinking of
All the good and the bad
That made us what we are
Oh wo oh
Party, party do you wanna party
Party, party all night long
A mi say
Party, party do you wanna party
Party, party till the sun comes out
On the beach, on the beach, on the beach
Bear bottom, it used to be a lot of fun
We used to jump the fence at my Alma mater
And there we go with the boys and girls
Who just want some fun eh
Dem a searching for freedom oh
Dem a seeking redemption, validation, inclusion
In the social confusion
We made the mistakes and we learned our lessons
Now is the future, let's show the youths the way forward
O' town
Let's make it better for one and all
O' town
Let's lead the way and show the children the way forward
O' town
We might have learnt the hard way
The children don't have to do the same
O' town
We have to pave the way, show some love
And make it a better place
O' town
Oh.. ho.. oh.. woo!
O' town
Eh.. eh.. eh.. eh.. eh.. eh!
It used to be the cleanest city oh year!
At the east of the river Niger tell me more!
Beautiful people with a formidable culture
Peaceful, loving and hospitable
It doesn't matter where you come from
As long as you live in Owerri
You are my brother and my sister
Rasta we go make it right
I say, come with me, come with me, come with me eh
Come with me, come with me, follow me make we go
I go show you were we de go when we wan cool off
Were we de chop like no man business
Egwu mgbaratu na im we call ebo
Dance make i dance make we no para
Jumping, jumping come and jump with me
We go skank and skanking, till day break
When the big boys and big girls comes back into town
There will be a lot of shake
We will be pushing and helping in the polity
And maybe the sanity will come back
We just want good life.. eh!
For the younger generation.. oh!
We are seeking sincerity
Solidarity, posterity for good of our nation
We've been through all these rough situation
Now is the future let's take the bull by the horn now
O' town
Let's make it better for one and all
O' town
Let's lead the way and show the children the way forward
O' town
We might have learnt the hard way
The children don't have to do the same
O' town
We have to pave the way, show some love
And make it a better place
O' town
Oh.. ho.. oh.. woo!
O' town
