[Intro]
Men Nicko
Men Nicko-G
[Verse]
Grann St Anne Charitab sèlman w wè m pa manyen afè moun yo
M pa antre nan koze moun yo
M pa anmègde moun yo
Moun yo leve nan kò m
Mèt Agwe fann lanmè a pou mwen mete m sou do
M konnen w konn manje sou dlo
Bon kisa m fè moun yo pou moun yo pa vle wè m konsa
Sou kondisyon djab la m pral fè demand mwen
Pou m jwenn jistis ak moun k ap atake m yo
[Chorus]
Sou kondisyon djab la sa k mouri ap mouri nèt
Timoun pa antre nan jandam tonnè
Sou kondisyon djab la sou kondisyon Papa Legba
Ezili Dantò Ezili Jewouj manman
Sou kondisyon djab la
Bò manman m bò papa m
Sou kondisyon djab an nou (2x)
Kondisyon ret kondisyon
[Verse]
St Jacques sèt mativite
Yo genlè sou zile m soti
Tout tan lanmè a pa seche
M konn yon plim sou do mwen pap janm soti
Bò isit y ap mete pou mwen se pyèj sou pyèj
Bal ap tire tout kote se grèv sou grèv
Lavi m se sèl rezon k son prèv sou prèv
Manman Philomise Philo
Depi w wè m ap rele w konn bagay yo anpil
Bon zanmi m yo konplis nan lo a
Yo mèt ret tann repons yo sa poko fini oh
Y ap fè konplo sou do m y ap manje avè m
Yo se pi bon zanmi m se sa yo konn di lè yo wè m
M wè yo soti pou blo m men yo pa vo lapèn
Mwen m se pitit lakou sa m pa wè yo kanpe avè m manman
[Chorus]
Sou kondisyon djab la sa k mouri ap mouri nèt
Timoun pa antre nan jandam tonnè
Sou kondisyon djab la sou kondisyon Papa Legba
Ezili Dantò Ezili Jewouj manman
Sou kondisyon djab la
Bò manman m bò papa m
Sou kondisyon djab an nou (2x)
Kondisyon ret kondisyon
