[Verse 1]
Wa ha la
Them say the pastor wey dey preach
Don finally buy benz
Church money dey shine
But my eye no fit bend
For the lane, e no clean
For the mouth, e plenty
One story, one rumor
Everybody dey gree
[Pre-Chorus]
Mommy go, mommy go
Who dey call am so?
She dey smile for the front
But the back dey show
Mommy go, mommy go
Na wetin we go hear?
As the night don cast
Truth dey near
[Chorus]
Mommy go, mommy go
E pikin don dey do hoke up
Mommy go, mommy go
Na who go hold am up?
Mommy go, mommy go
Say the road too rough
Mommy go, mommy go
But the talk no enough
[Verse 2]
For the table, everybody quiet
But the phone no cease
One voice say pray
One voice say please
Wetin remain for house?
Wetin remain for trust?
If paper dey talk too loud
Then who go hush?
[Pre-Chorus]
Mommy go, mommy go
Who dey call am so?
She dey smile for the front
But the back dey show
Mommy go, mommy go
Na wetin we go hear?
As the night don cast
Truth dey near
[Chorus]
Mommy go, mommy go
E pikin don dey do hoke up
Mommy go, mommy go
Na who go hold am up?
Mommy go, mommy go
Say the road too rough
Mommy go, mommy go
But the talk no enough
[Bridge]
No be every shine be blessing
No be every smile be peace
When the house too full of secrets
E dey break small, piece by piece
[Final Chorus]
Mommy go, mommy go
E pikin don dey do hoke up
Mommy go, mommy go
Na who go hold am up?
Mommy go, mommy go
Say the road too rough
Mommy go, mommy go
But the talk no enough
