Lyrics
Yoyi yoyi yoyiiiiii oh oh oooh, ewo.
Is king David D, D for Dove
The Good looking king of Africa
Akara mama julu, Ayia ahugim
Onye ga egomuya, Onye ga egomuya
Everyone has gone out, I come dey cry
Dey go buy akara mama, Akara mama is so delicious
After school, we waited for a ride in vain
From Holy Trinity to Forest, the rain made us trek in pain
Me and my friends, Chibuike, Adindu, Okechukwu, and Chineye
We walked through the rain, our spirits low, you see
My mind was on the Akara and Bread I had to sell
To support my mom's business, it was my responsibility to compel
Akara mama julu, Ayia ahugim
Onye ga egomuya, Onye ga egomuya
Everyone has gone out, I come dey cry
Dey go buy akara mama, Akara mama is so delicious
We reached the forest, and I began to sell
Crying "Akara mama di uso", but no one would tell
The rain kept people away, I was all alone
My heart heavy with sadness, my sales pan my only throne
I searched deeper in the forest, a place I'd never been
Hoping to find a buyer, my last resort, my only win
Then a tall man in white appeared from behind
Called me softly, and my heart was aligned
I was shocked, my legs frozen in fear
But he approached me gently, and my doubts disappeared
He asked for Akara, and I hesitated at first
But he laughed and asked again, and my heart was immersed
In a moment's thought, I calculated my gain
Packaged the Akara, and he paid, my heart no longer in pain
Akara mama julu, Ayia ahugim
Onye ga egomuya, Onye ga egomuya
Everyone has gone out, I come dey cry
Dey go buy akara mama, Akara mama is so delicious
I turned to thank him, but he was gone
Disappeared in thin air, leaving me to ponder
I ran back to mama Anurika, my heart still in awe
Akara mama, the snack that saved me, I'll never forget the tall man in white, who made my day.
Is king David D Reporting.
