lyrics

Six-thirty badge in my hand

Blue apron creased with dust and sand

By the gate, old trolley squeaks

Same cracked floor for six long weeks

I fold my cap by the fan

Clock face shines on my palm

Last round here, I know it

My heart stays, but I go

One last shift, one last shift

One last shift, one last shift

Kumasi road, I feel the pull

One last shift, one last shift

Tea stain dried on the tray

Mr. Mensah nods my way

Bolt cutters hanging by the wall

I know these corners like my own hall

I pack my lunch box slow

Tin spoon, salt, and kenkey glow

Last round here, I know it

My heart stays, but I go

One last shift, one last shift

One last shift, one last shift

Kumasi road, I feel the pull

One last shift, one last shift

At the back, the radio hums

A friend says, "Bro, your day will come"

I laugh, wipe sweat from my brow

This place hurt me, I miss it now

One last shift, one last shift

One last shift, one last shift

Kumasi road, I feel the pull

One last shift, one last shift
