Johnny lyrics

Ho ah

Habokoto bokoto1 eh

Selebobo pon the beat

(Selebobo on the beat)

Yemi Alade

It’s Effyzzie baby

Johnny leave me follow Cynthia

And I don’t know what to do

And he talk say I no do am

Like the way Cynthia dey do

Johnny give Uche belle2

He talk say he wan marry Nene

Nwokem ke di fe neme3

I’m looking for my Johnny eh

Where is my Johnny... Johnny mo

Do you know Johnny (question)

If I no see my Johnny

I’m looking for my honey (ya ya ya)

You telling me this, you telling me that

I say this is not for me

He’s doing me this

But I no go tell mummy
