Several commenters wrote that "Waah!" is an exclamation of excitement and/or suprise.
Note: I added italics to the comment that gives the transcriber's opinion about the "bad words" that are being transcribed. The asterisks are given in this transcription in place of the word "vagina".
The transcription ends with the commenter's words:
"Done
One africa one love ❤️"
I added bracket for the name "Koffi" in this transcription to distinguish that indication of who is singing from the lyrics to the song itself.

He takes a set Waah!
Doze doze, doze d oze
He takes it and puts it on Waah!
