: talking drum, shekere, hi-hats
Girl you dey move like water for the lagoon
Sway left, sway right, make the night too soon
Your waist dey talk Yoruba, no need translation
When you hold me close, I lose my location
Say make we no rush this thing, take am easy
Life too short to dey live it uneasy
Put your hand for my hand, make we fly away
Till the sun go shout “e don be, e don day!”
Lead: Hey! Hey! Midnight Lagoon!
Chorus: Na you dey make my heart go boom!
Lead: Hey! Hey! Dance with me now!
Chorus: Nobody go stop us, we go show them how!
Talking drum dey speak, shekere dey answer
Your smile na my compass, I no go wander
From Lagos to Accra, the beat dey travel
Anywhere we dey, we go make them marvel
Eh eh!
Make the drums talk!
Make the bass walk!
If you feel am, make you shout “Ole!”
Lead: Hey! Hey! Midnight Lagoon!
Chorus: Na you dey make my heart go boom!
Lead: One more time for the people!
Chorus: Nobody go stop us, we go show them how!
