[Verse 1]

Natoka zangu kwetu Kibiti

Naisaka Dar es Salaam

Naenda tafuta riziki

Niwatunze Baba na Mama

Nikizunga haba na haba

Ndio kilo inatosha

Chunga miguu kuvaa Rubber bana

Zisizo kutosha

Anayesema riziki mafungu saba

Anakupotosha

Riziki mafungu mawili

Kupata au kukosa

Aliyoyasema baba

Heshima ya nyumba si dirisha

Dunia ni saa mbovu mwana

Usije ifwatisha

Vingine vinakaba

Lazima unywe maji kupitisha

Umia upate kovu baba

Maumivu yatakwisha

[Bridge]

Hata mate kinywani ya uchungu

Nayameza kwa tabu jama

Maisha yangu mazingaombwe

Ya maajabu sana

Oooh mama Oooh

Eeeeh mama eeeh

[Chorus]

Ooooh Shida Ooooh Shida

Ooooh Shida Ooooh Shida

Shida zitakwisha lini

Ooooh Shida Ooooh Shida

Ooooh Shida Ooooh Shida

Shida zitakwisha lini

[Verse 2]

Najipa matumaini

Nitafute nisichoke

Moyoni nikiamini kuwa

Mungu ni wetu sote

Ila Mbona kwangu sasambu sasambu

Sipati usiku si mchana

Ama kitabu cha riziki yangu

Tayari kimechanwa

Eeeeh eh Eeeeh

Baba Mama chama na mogela

Yani mimi ndio nategemewa

Nakaza nashinda kombolela

Likipigwa nabutua hewa

[Bridge]

Hata mate kinywani ya uchungu

Nayameza kwa tabu jama

Maisha yangu mazingaombwe

Ya maajabu sana

Oooh mama Oooh (Oooh)

Eeeeh mama eeeh (Oh Oooh)

[Chorus]

Ooooh Shida (Ooooh Shida)

Ooooh Shida (Ooooh)

Ooooh Shida

Shida zitakwisha lini (Mama mama eeh)

Ooooh Shida (Mama mama eeh)

Ooooh Shida (Mama mama aaah)

Ooooh Shida (Ooooh)

Shida zitakwisha lini
