Lyrics

The time don come for me to talk
 Before I talk make I thank everyone
 For the support you na give my family
 During our troubles you my friends
 Una dey with me
 Ninety-seven
 I shall never forget
 Ninety-seven
 The pain, the sorrow, the stress
 I want to thank you my friends
 I want to thank you my friends

 Oh yes I remember
 The day all of us we gathered
 To pay our respect to the one and only Fela
 We carry am go him house
 Before him spirit go for Eledumare Palace I say
 Together we waka
 To carry Fela oh
 For those wey no know

 Say the people them love Fela oh
 Together we waka
 To carry Fela oh
 From TBS we waka
 Reach Ikeja waka
 Seven hours waka
 Just to carry Fela
 Together we waka
 To carry Fela oh
 The young and the old
 The strong and the weak
 The rich and the poor
 Them gather to carry Fela
 Together we waka
 To carry Fela oh
 And then we want start to relax
 We no know our problems just start
 From no where we hear
 Cousin Fran just pas
 Just like that she die
 We start to wonder why
 Enough is enough
 The people start to talk
 The problems don too much
 As we start to relax
 Again and then suddenly we hear
 ♪
 Na the matter of my sister Sola
 Come make all of us weak for body
 Again we asked ourselves why
 For she was too young to die
 As we dey cry na so we dey try
 We dey struggle to save our life
 The doctors themselves them dey lie
 Them want to get money to survive
 The thing wey dey pain me pass
 Na the way she suffer before she died
 Na so them dey cut, cut
 Dey ccMaking experiment with human life

 Oh! My sister Sola oh! Oh! Oh!
