The stranger girl is simply a story of a young man who fell in love with a new girl in the neighborhood. A girl he only saw once through his window. Finally meeting the girl, he proposed his feelings to this new stranger girl hoping that she will accept him.Funny enough, he was already calling the stranger girl his ife (his love), and he believes that he would lose his life if he is refused by this pretty stranger. It’s an interesting love story which can either end in happy ever after or tragedy for the young; but notwithstanding, the young man in deeply in love and in hope he believes the girl will come to accept him.
The stranger girl is a mixture of Pure English and the Nigerian Pidgin English. While most part of it were written in English, the chorus which is about four lines was arranged in Nigeria Pidgin English. In the chorus which is written in pidgin English, the lover boy who called the stranger girl his ife affirmed the possibility of him losing his life if the girl refuses him.
Lyric
One faithful morning
Was just looking through my window
I saw o baby from afar
But I couldn’t meet up with you
But right there I fell you baby
So deeply I cannot explain it
But I know it’s real
And I know it’s true
Since the day that I saw you baby
I have never been my self again
But I know it’s real
And I know it’s true
Ife mi my heart beat ooo
If no gree me I fit kpi x2
Oh stranger girl
You have stolen my heart away you don’t even know
You have stolen my heart away you don’t even know
You are stock in my head
And I cannot let you go baby
You have stolen my heart away you don’t even know
People say I am running crazy
For loving a stranger girl baby
You have stolen my heart away you don’t even know
You might be a stranger to this neighborhood
You might a new girl to every other person
But to me you are my ife
You have stolen my heart away you don’t even know
Ife mi my heart beat ooo
If no gree me I fit kpi x2
