Red Ribbons in the West

Sam Madeyin 1991 (Ogun States)

Set your fragiled heart towards a bridal bribes
Take the freebies its your honorary vibes
It all blinding lights to your eyes
so dipped in red dyes
Dudes and Damed!

The day is getting darker
And for our betrothed wife we have made bed in oceans
Blame it on me I'm one to be blamed!

We rolls in absurd ground we all rolls
Doing wolf whistling for our brother today
This day his days
Name the prices so we could've pays
We all came in Red and white Agbada, One thousand and Five hundred Naira
As you knew in our lineage wealthier
A solemnly famed!
