Jute Bag Magic

[Intro]
[Verse]
Sun dey shine for Eko (Eko!)
Dust dey dance for my toe (my toe!)
Stranger man walkin' slow (walkin' slow)
Smilin' like he really know (he know!)
Woven bag on his side
With a walk full of pride
He stop me for the corner
Like a long-lost owner
[Pre-Chorus]
He open the jute bag wide (so wide)
See the treasures inside (inside)
Fresh coconut for the heat
Highlife tapes for the beat
Old labels turnin' gold
Stories waitin' to be told
[Chorus]
Highlife in the jute bag (bag)
Coconut in the jute bag (bag)
Lagos coast feelin' fine
Sweet like palm-wine
Dance till the sun go down
Happiest people in town
Highlife in the jute bag (bag)
Coconut in the jute bag (bag)
[Post-Chorus]
Oya shake it (shake it)
Oya take it (take it)
Highlife magic (magic)
Never tragic (tragic)
[Verse]
Victor Olaiya on the deck (the deck)
Put some respect on the neck (the neck)
Guitar soundin' like a stream
Life is lookin' like a dream
We crack the shell on the stone
Best taste I ever known
White meat sweet for the tongue
Feel like we forever young
[Pre-Chorus]
He open the jute bag wide (so wide)
See the treasures inside (inside)
Fresh coconut for the heat
Highlife tapes for the beat
Old labels turnin' gold
Stories waitin' to be told
[Chorus]
Highlife in the jute bag (bag)
Coconut in the jute bag (bag)
Lagos coast feelin' fine
Sweet like palm-wine
Dance till the sun go down
Happiest people in town
Highlife in the jute bag (bag)
Coconut in the jute bag (bag)
[Bridge]
Talking drum start to speak (speak)
Make your knees gettin' weak (weak)
No need for plenty money
When the vibe is so sunny
From the beach to the street
Move your soul and your feet
Ancient magic in the weave
Something you gidi believe
[Hook]
It’s the rhythm of the coast
It’s the thing I love the most
Coconut and the tape
There is no escape
From the joy in the air
Music everywhere
[Chorus]
Highlife in the jute bag (bag)
Coconut in the jute bag (bag)
Lagos coast feelin' fine
Sweet like palm-wine
Dance till the sun go down
Happiest people in town
Highlife in the jute bag (bag)
Coconut in the jute bag (bag)
[Post-Chorus]
Oya shake it (shake it)
Oya take it (take it)
Highlife magic (magic)
Never tragic (tragic)
