To ri ba ngbona omi lero lero
If your head be hot- water it cool am

Tomo ba ngagda omi lo- malo

If water kill your child- water you go use
Tobi ba bwi nao homi lo- malo

Nothing without water (repeat this couplet)

(CHORUS) WATER, IT NO GET ENEMY - (AFTER EACH LINE)
Oh me a water-o
No go fight am, unless you wan die

O me a water-o
O they talk of Black-man power
O they talk of Black power, I say
I say water No get enemy
No go fight am, unless you wan die
I say water No get enemy
I say water No get enemy
O me a water-o
O me a water-o
