Is anyone able to share the lyrics of this song?It's such a shame that Naija songs aren't well supported by written lyrics in the public sphere. We're in danger of losing a lot of information as time goes by, just as we did our ancient history...Write it down folks! Publish!

*Sir Victor Uwaifo* - Joromi *(Original Version)*Victor Uwaifo was the first African to be awarded a gold disc for his 1965 hit 'Joromi'. According to him, a childhood, seaside encounter with a mermaid spurned his followup hit, "Guitar Boy".A restless musical Enigma whose sound drew heavily upon the folky rhythms and melodies of his Edo roots, Uwaifo's music ruled Nigeria's airwaves throughout the late 1960's and well into the 1970's. His dazzling showmanship and stage performances continue to win him fans and accolades globally.#nigeria #60smusic #oldafricanmusic 

Man Bless

I don't if u now understand the meaning, but it is based on a story of a stubborn young man named Joromi to not go look for trouble. But he never listened.

I just read that Victor Uwaifo can play the guitar with both feet and with his TONGUE! Him and Oliver De Coque (R.I.P) were Nigeria's guitar legends!!! THIS IS A CLASSIC!!!

You are so right.

Wow! Nothing surpasses the original. This is what brings bk the memories. I think this song was bigger in Ghana even than in Nigeria. We didn't understand the words but what did it matter? The music was all.
