African Giant Lyrics

[Intro]
Don't let me down
Don't let me, don't let me‚ don't let me down
Don't let me‚ don't let me down
Don't let me‚ don't let me, don't let me down
Wòyiwó-yiwó
Wòyiwó-yiwó

[Chorus]
Tell 'em, Africa‚ we don tire
So here comes the African Giant
Many, many people don try am
But you can't test the African Giant
Emi òmo lógo lógo
E no get person way me no know
Making dem loco, oh no
Make you no dey do like òtókótò

[Verse]
Nobody do it better‚ better than me
Can't nobody do it better, check am and see
I know say one day e go better, I go carry Grammy
Because anything wey better require planning
E don be, e don be, oh, nothing you can do
Because God no go give you more than you can handle
Na so dem mama go halla èbélèbè e gbúo
Na so dem papa go halla èbélèbè e gbúo
Óbòdó èdéligwó jim, jim
Óbòdó èdéligwó jim, jim
Óbòdó èdéligwó jim, jim
Óbòdó èdéligwó jim jim
Óbòdó èdéligwó jim jim
Óbòdó èdéligwó jim jim

[Chorus]
Tell 'em, Africa, we don tire
So here comes the African Giant
Many, many people don't try am
But you can't test the African Giant
Emi òmo lógo lógo
E no get person way me no know
Making dem loco, oh no
Make you no dey do like òtókótò

[Outro]
Don't let me down
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
Don't let me, don't let me down
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
Don't let me, don't let me down
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down
Don't let me, don't let me down
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
