Verse 1
Amaka, we carried the chairs out by four
Your uncle parked his bus across the whole door
There's jollof in the big pot, the one from your sister's wedding day
And the rain held off tonight like it knew better than to play
Thirty years of you and I have known you for twelve
Since that queue at Yaba market when you paid for me yourself
Pre-Chorus
So drag the speaker to the gate and let the street hear
Everybody wey pass go know say na your year
Chorus
Thirty in the compound and the gate is open wide
Amaka, na your night, come outside, come outside
We no dey count the years, we dey count who show up
Generator dey hum till the morning break us up
Verse 2
Remember when the light cut for eleven days straight
You carried your small fan to my place and you stayed
You dey give to people wey never even ask
Tonight nobody dey collect from your hand at all
Sit down for the middle, make them serve you first
For once in your life, Amaka, let somebody carry you
Chorus
Thirty in the compound and the gate is open wide
Amaka, na your night, come outside, come outside
We no dey count the years, we dey count who show up
Generator dey hum till the morning break us up
Outro
Amaka, e sweet me say I know you
One more song, one more, the speaker never tire
Jollof still dey for the pot, nobody dey go home
