Town Girl Village Boy

Ayy...

Mayo, my heart is bleeding oh.

(Acoustic guitar intro)

I see you walking in the capital city

Your dress is shining, looking so pretty

Me I dey stay for the village side, mukwai

No money for pocket, I can't even buy

The things you want, the life you desire

But my love for you is burning like fire

You look at my family, you say we be poor

You lock your heart and you shut the door

Oh town girl, why you do me so?

Because I stay in the village, you tell me no

Love is not about the cash, my baby

But you say my background is too shady

Yoh, you want a city boy with a big machine

But my love for you is the purest you've seen

You say "Muli shani" but you walk away

You tell your friends I have nothing to say

Is it a crime to come from the dust?

In this your world, is there no trust?

I hold my guitar under the mango tree

Singing the songs of what we could be

Boza! You say love is just a game

But my heart is calling out your name

Oh town girl, why you do me so?

Because I stay in the village, you tell me no

Love is not about the cash, my baby

But you say my background is too shady

Yoh, you want a city boy with a big machine

But my love for you is the purest you've seen

Mayo! It hurts so deep inside.

Just a village boy with nothing to hide.

Ayy... Yoh...
