Original Lyrics - I Go Chop Your Dollar
I don suffer no be small
Upon say I get sense
Poverty no good at all, ooo
Na im make I join this business
419 no be thief, it's just a game
Everybody dey play em
if anybody fall mugu,
ha! my brother I go chop em
Chorus:
National Airport na me get em
National Stadium na me build em
President na my sister brother
You be the mugu, I be the master
Oyinbo man I go chop your dollar,
I go take your money disappear
419 is just a game, you are the loser I am the winner
The refinery na me get em,
The contract, na you I go give em
But you go pay me small money make I bring em
you be the mugu, I be the master…
na me be the master ooo!!!!
When Oyinbo play wayo,

When country man do him own,
them go dey shout: bring em, kill em, die!
That Oyinbo people greedy, I say them greedy
I don see them tire
That's why when they fall into my trap o!
I dey show them fire
Translation of Original Lyrics - I Go Chop Your Dollar
Translated by Azuka Nzegwu and Adeolu Ademoyo.
I am suffering greatly
and I get this idea (or wise)
poverty is not good at all
and I decide to join this business (scam)
419 is not a criminal act but a game
Everybody will play
but if you are fool
I will chop your money
Chorus:
I own the National Airport
I built the National Stadium
The president is my sister's brother
You are the fool and I am the master
White man, I will eat your dollar
I will take your money and disappear
419 is just a game, you are the loser and I am the winner
I own the refinery
I will give you the contract
But you will have to pay me a small fee before I bring them
You are the fool, I am the master
I am the master!!!!
When whites scam
it is said that it is a new style
But when the country man does the same
White people shout: bring them, kill them, die!
White people are greedy, I say they are greedy
I have seen through them deeply (or very well)
So, when they fall into my trap
I will show them fire (or showing someone who is the real boss by treating them harshly)
